It's already bookable on icelandair.us

The local Swedish community is pretty excited about this. The biggest plus is that the ARN-KEF flight doesn't depart until 2pm, which means you can avoid the massive TATL crowds in the mornings.
Naturally, the biggest disadvantage is the brutal eight hours in a 757, and, as a *A flyer, the possibility of not earning points on UA.
