Find Cheap Flights from Vancouver Intl to London Heathrow (YVR - LHR)

Missed connection to SFO

Lots of leg room, even in economy.

Entertainment choices were a bit sparse.

Virgin Atlantic offers good service at a reasonable price to/from the US to London. Good food service and unbelieveable number of movies and entertainment to choose from.

The seating and leg room in economy classic were inadequate. We felt way too confined in our seats and the leg room was a joke. I am only 6' tall and this was unacceptable. We will try to upgrade for the return trip.

Food and snacks!!!!!

Nice comfortable flight, has good entertainment program. Uncomplicated easy boarding.

Food for 9 h wish to be better: dinner was cold (you could feel that chicken was warmed in microwave, but pasta was just taken from fridge), breakfast was pathetic. In last seats to many overhead compartments was secured for equipment or occupied by crew

Air Canada are fucking arseholes

Everything fucking aspect

the good service at the check in and on the plane, or the great entertainment service, are all shadowed by Air Canada service for families with babies. We live in Vancouver and use frequently either Air canada or British Airways. We have a 1 year old baby, and on BA we automatically receive family seats for no extra charge, which have extra leg room and option for a bassinet. even with a 1 year old baby they have a special seat for that age, instead of a bassinet which fits only new born babies, so our 1 year old baby could sleep in a chair for hours on BA flight we just took from London to Tel Aviv. we got to London on a AC flight from Vancouver, where we weren't given family seats unless we paid more, so we had to spend 9.5 hours with a 1 YO baby at our lap, the baby of course was miserable, so we were miserable, but not just us, everyone in our vicinity had to suffer the baby's crying. On the BA flight the baby could sleep in a special chair for older babies, placed where usually a bassinet is placed, or sit on the floor next to our legs (because there's so much more leg room in the family seats), something the 1 YO babies need very much. I will recommend anyone with a baby to never fly with AC, especially when you have great alternatives like BA.

The zone system seems to work well for boarding and the cabin crew on my flight to London were superb, helpful and polite to myself and others, despite a few impatient passengers.

Late flight. Both flights smelled of latrines. Charge for one checked back one way was 99.00. Flight attendant rude and said no vegetarian meals were available to purchase and I ordered within 10 mins of taking off. First she ignored me, even though she was talking to passenger next to me. I waited and she skipped right over me to next row. I had to press overhead light to get her attention. No veggie wrap available and I was told the vegetarian soup actually had chicken. No food is available otherwise on Iceland air flights. We almost missed our connection and flight crew didn’t even let us off plane before others who didn’t have tight connection. Husband was assigned a seat that didn’t exist on plane. Landing was the worst ever, came in on two wheels—all passengers were groaning. I travel a lot and will never choose Iceland air again.

Great planes. Great air crew. Great ground staff. Seats are large and comfortable. Crew does a great job of making sure you have what you need. Extremely attentive and professional. Gate agents are friendly and knowledgeable. They work hard to solve any problems you have - even if you're not and Iceland Air customer. I can't say enough good things about them. You can't go wrong flying Iceland Air.

This is one of the best airlines I've ever flown. Very nice comfortable planes. Excellent air crew. Everything they do is at a high standard. What really sets them apart is the really great service. I had a problem with WOW air not honoring my ticket due to snow. I had to book at the airport on Iceland air last minute. They didn't have a gate agent who could sell me a ticket - so they sent a manager out from the back office to book us so we would not be stranded due to WOW's incompetence. Booked us just minutes before take off, escorted us through security and onto the plane. Start to finish less than 30 minutes. Amazing service. Their class of service is far above that of major carriers. Iceland Air works harder and makes sure everything is right.

We did not fly Icelandair since our flight was cancelled but they took excellent care in booking us on another airline and all worked out. Icelandair has excellent customer service!

Nice flight. Empty seat between the two of us! Arrived earlier than expected.

Nothing.

the plane and crew

the chaos at KEV

Icelandair attitude suck and is the reason I will not even visit Iceland now.

Entertainment system with responsive touch screens, good sound and lots of choices. Flight on time. Professional crew.

Limited food selection (all food cost extra) and food was mediocre. Boarding in Reykjavik was slow and not well organized. While the crew hands out small water bottles upon boarding, more water should be offered during a long flight.

The flight was on time check in was simple and quick Staff on board friendly and professional Inflight movies fab Plenty of room on seats clean plane

Nothing all great

Will use again

Airline food has always been poor no matter which airline you travel. Be more liberal with the drinks trolley.

Captain kept us in a loop. Great crew.

Boarding was a mess. I really wish A/C would implement some sensible system. Had to delay departure to unload someone's bag. We made up the time only to loop around LHR for 25min.

Crew was very kind and attentive

Service

Food was great!

One flight attendant in particular was outstanding, Eva. Because of her, I would definitely consider Lufthansa for our next trip to Europe!! She mot definitely went above and beyond in her service and professionalism.

The flight was comfortable and the cabin crew attentive. The 7-hour flight time can't be beat. Free checked bag. On this occasion, the boarding in Reykjavik was through a jetway so you weren't exposed to the weather, though that's not always true.

Even using a jetway, boarding in Reykjavik is ridiculous, with inadequate seating and lots of standing around in confusing lines. They had four US/Canada flights leaving within 10 minutes, with the gates 10 feet apart and about 600 passengers jammed in four lines running through the concourse.

Icelandair attitude suck and is the reason I will not even visit Iceland now.

the plane and crew

the chaos at KEV

Nothing

All the hidden charges. My good deal turned out to be worst deal EVER. I paid extra for my my seat and got bump from my seat to a middle seat. Icelandair attitude suck about the whole thing too and could careless too. After this I don't even want to go to Iceland or have the Kayak app on my phone. Kayak and Icelandair, will do everything to let everyone know how miserable you made my vacation.

I decided to pay a little extra for preferred seating (exit row). However, I was stuck in the baby row. I would have been better off not paying extra and staying in my original seat. I have nothing against babies (the baby in my row was quiet), don't get me wrong! It's just that this should be pointed out at the time of selecting a seat and it was not clear on the AC website. The crew moved my carry on several rows back without telling me (I put my bag in first into the overhead bin and then had to chase it down when I needed something). Not acceptable!

Stewards were upbeat

Cramped for 7+ hours

Nothing much to complain about. For the section we were in, economy, the seats were pretty comfortable. Good space in front. Decent pitch. IFE was excellent. Staff were friendly and seemed genuinely happy to be there. Good mix of younger and older staff. Food wasn’t bad. Cabin crew kept passengers up to date. Really can’t ask for anything more.

Well. Maybe one small thing. Airflow from vents above were a bit weak. I think the newer planes are like that as our next leg on a smaller A319 had quite the powerful vents.

Entertaintment system was good. I was happy with the selection of movies and last releases. No delays in flights which was a plus.

Food was terrible. Portions were small, we were given a KitKat for dessert. No side salad or anything. No headphones were given prior to the flight. Long haul flights should always provide these. Most of the flight wasn’t Lufthansa but Air Canada instead. This should be advertised properly as I had no idea.

The desk staff were really helpful and unexpectedly accommodating.

Seat pitch in economy is too tight to do work on a 14" laptop. The food was mediocre at best.
