The Heathrow map is simple enough to understand, but the Keflavik one is confusing as they don't have a guide for what the icons mean.

In Yoshi212's initial reply, it was stated '-At KEF you'll go through passport control before proceeding to your next flight' so, based on their airport map,am I to understand 'border control' on the bottom map is the passport control? The reason I ask is because, on the 'transfer' tab, it states 'If a passenger leaves the customs area (from the Arrival area) in Keflavik, the passenger will not be able to return to continue his trip' so this has me a bit worried.
I think the customs area is on the 2nd map page, so am I correct in understanding I go through border control and then stay in this general area (if my connection is at one of those C Gates at the bottom)? It's a pretty poor map, I think,
