3 March 2017 Friday

Arrived Zurich at day break. The custom check at Zurich took us one and half hour. We missed our connection to Copenhagen.

We were lucky. Many travelers failed their connection too and the queue was excessive long behind us.LSS 20170303_154015 (12)

 

Another 30 minutes delay before our flight took off to Copenhagen. We estimated we had less than one hour to collect luggage and then to recheck in the luggage for the flight to Iceland upon touch down. Accordingly, if we missed our planned flight, the next flight to Iceland would be tomorrow.

The superstar was Ling Ling, who had spoken to officer after officer and she successfully placed all of us onto flight to Iceland, without having us to collect and recheck in our luggage.

Iceland Air service short haul flight to Iceland. I have preconception that it should be like one of those budget airline. On the contrary, the flight is comparable to any world class airline, if not better. The seats are comfortable and good.
