Keflavik International Airport

We finally got our bags checked in. For some reason, we couldn't get our tickets and check in our bags at a kiosk. We had to wait for the travel agents to make an appearance at 5 AM, and then we had to wait for them to take care of the Saga Premium passengers and families with small children first, and then we had to try very hard not to beat up the people who jumped the line in front of us. Saw a guy with an FHSU hoodie while we were waiting. Fortunately, our ticket agent was super nice and didn't charge me for our 2 extra bags.

Apparently, I didn't look sketchy at all, so I basically waltzed through security. McKelvie's carry-on bag, though, had to be searched. Staplers...who knew? The TSA agent who had to do the searching thought the X-ray guy was stupid. While we were waiting, Kelv saw one of her cohort members, Mags, who'll be studying in Copenhagen this year, so that was cool.

Finally, they announced our gate (IcelandAir always waits until about 45 minutes before starting to load the plane to do this), and we headed downstairs to board the shuttle that took us out to the plane. We're on board now - SUPER TIRED but ready to go.Läs mer
