On the Ground:
Icelandair departs from Terminal 2 in Frankfurt and from Concours D but downstairs in the Schengen Area. It is a little tricky to find as the gate was only announced 5 minutes! prior the boarding time.
I checked in online and had no bags to be checked.
No queues at the security check.

Thanks to my Priority Pass I was able to use the Air France Lounge which is actually the official Lounge for Icelandair in Frankfurt.
The selection of Drinks was ok, rather in the picky side. The choice for Snacks and Food was limited.

Gate staff was nice and helpful. They boarded into a waiting area where a few minutes later you could board the aircraft.

Cabin Crew was present in the Cabin during boarding but that is about it.

Inflight:
The seats are really comfortable and ok with a 3/3 seating configuration. All seats are new and each seat is equipped with a touchscreen and USB port. The seat pitch is great and you have enough space.

The Service in Economy is a hybrid style. All Softdrinks including Tea and Coffee are free of charge. Alcoholic beverages as well as Food and Snacks are available against payment.

During the service the cabin crew was friendly, smiling and interacting with the customers.

The inflight entertainment is brand new and the Touchscreenscreens have a great quality.
Icelandair offers a great choice of films, TV programs, music as well as Information of the Country.
WiFi is available on board Icelandair and I find the price of 4.00€ for the entire flight (3hr 15min) more than fair.

I would definitely recommend Icelandair for future trips.
