FI: North America to Europe from 1050$ rt biz

With Icelandair via KEF.
It is for sure not the best business class product, but far better as economy, and the price is cheap.
Furthermore you will get lounge access, and you can earn Miles with Alsaka, right?

another great find - particularly as originates from NA.
NA is a typically very expensive departure point.
good for AS miles (obviously).

Icelandic biz seats are like domestic F seats / international premium economy right? These prices are similar to premium economy on other carriers.

Yeah, it's a 2-2 recliner product. In fact they rebranded their product from "Saga Business" to "Saga Premium" to properly set expectations.

Also, are US originating Y+ fares in this ballpark too?

You earn more miles as premium economy and you have lounge access.

Also, if I'm correct the are only 2-2 and 2-1-2 rows. No 2-3-2 or 2-4-2. I'd call that a slight but noticeable improvement since you and a spouse would never be seated with another person.

FI Seats

FI fleet is predominantly 757-200/300 and 737 Max i.e. narrow body. More than that, I find the 757 rather noisy. Even in Saga, it would be a step down from the true PE in the mainline carriers.

I felt I had more legroom in other carriers' economy than in IcelandAir business where we got forcefully reassigned seats. The fish tasted quite off and I couldn't eat it.
