And on the return, they tried to book us into Icelandair's "Business Class", which would not even qualify as Premium Economy on most other airlines. We had to pay significant additional money beyond their "deal" (more than double their original quote) to get real Business Class and a reasonable schedule.
We have found it’s sometimes a better deal for us to book our own air travel and opt for Silversea’s “port to port” fare rather than their “door to door” fare.
