Saga Premium is the front-of-cabin recliner product with a two-two seat and dedicated service. Economy Comfort is an Icelandair fare type that unlocks extra-legroom rows within the main Economy cabin — more space, same seat hardware. They are different products at different price points.
The exit rows and designated extra-legroom rows are marked on the cabin map. This configuration carries a reasonable number of these positions — more than the MAX 8 layout — so checking the map before selecting is worthwhile on a long crossing.
The extra-legroom rows are the top picks if space matters; the cabin map marks them clearly. Otherwise, forward Economy rows are quieter, clearer of the rear galley, and board and disembark more efficiently. Window seats give the best view on a flight that often crosses Greenland.
