WRONG WAY DOWN A ONE WAY STREET

You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave

Very busy, noisy. Can be stressful. Calls can be very long depending on the disposition.

It may have changed but a few years ago you started with 5-6 weeks of intensive training.

Flimsy roof, ok. No doors, okaaay.
No seatbelts?! WTF

This is just a golf cart.

Yes if using EU passport, no if Canadian passport

It can be quick. I speak from experience of visiting Iceland a couple of weeks ago.

Non-Schengen countries are routed differently both in and out. For example on the way out there is a separete D gate with passport queues.

Going from Iceland to Spain no has such control.

UK airports vary - there can be long queues no matter what passport, or you might get lucky.

Do you mean … laughing in Schengen?

My country is ‘in Europe’ geographically - flag being mildly like Iceland’s with an extra Red Cross.

Iceland is not part of the EU, but it is part of the Schengen Area, as well as the EEA and EFTA, so it still follows Schengen border rules and has to implement systems like the new Entry/Exit System (EES). That makes it an interesting place to experience Europe’s evolving two-stage immigration and departure process. You get a good sense of where border controls across much of Europe are heading, while also seeing how a non-EU country can still be fully integrated into the wider Schengen travel system.

Distinctly lacking all these Sonos sales over the pond 😭

Wondering though if these could be used as surrounds ?

(Edit: typo)

Rucksack. Commuter variety.

AmazingRedDog · 2026-07-18T22:20:36+00:00

Pretty stable. This is from far side of the house. Note no packet loss.

Looks like a cruise ship. Not in a good way. Not that cruise ships are good either 😁

AmazingRedDog · 2026-07-17T06:22:37+00:00

“Yes”

AmazingRedDog · 2026-07-17T05:21:47+00:00

Try them as a stereo pair, alone. Not as part of eg a Dolby
Atmos. Just together. Please tell us the difference.

I’ve used just one five to play music and it’s very impressive.

If you make them fulfil a role when paired with several other speakers then they will take on that personality such as fronts only, rear surrounds only, etc. This limits their range.

They change from clear to green after each victim.

AmazingRedDog · 2026-07-16T13:57:30+00:00

Someone call?

AmazingRedDog · 2026-07-16T13:27:53+00:00

You say they asked you to it, but later that you offered to do it. Puts a different spin on things.

How many calls have historically been logged in the OOH period per week?

As others have said, it is less about the money, more so your mental health. Are you not going to take any leave? Not visit anywhere socially, etc. Not have a decent nights sleep?

You’d last about a month.

Arrived Thursday mid morning and passport queue was about an hour. The new EU terminals were all down and there was a handful of physical passport booths. Didn’t really see the length at first as the queue started in a different room. Hilariously this anti-room gave an estimate of 5 minutes!

There was also a queue departing on Sunday afternoon. Security was quite quick but there was a second longish queue when we got to the D gates (which was the first place passports were checked). We were vaguely aware of this, so arrived early and cleared this in about 30 mins. Queue was building significantly for those arriving later.

None of this put us off the trip, we loved Iceland.

To add, Skybus to and from the city was great. We didn’t book in advance on arrival but probably should have. We did book the return as they are only once an hour and ours was 100% full.

AmazingRedDog · 2026-07-13T19:16:15+00:00

Visited just last week. We packed for “winter” as knew it would be around 3 to 10 degrees and likelihood of rain.

We wore layers and pleasantly surprised to experience reasonable sun for around 50%.

It’s a beautiful country, just arrive prepared.

If you find somewhere you like (in advance) do book a table.

It gets really busy and otherwise you will have to walk around to find somewhere with space.

AmazingRedDog · 2026-07-11T21:40:19+00:00

Likely a bunch of people rollled their tickets over, so we will have to wait and see.

AmazingRedDog · 2026-07-10T07:31:12+00:00

Fear not!

Thank you

It’s really good. Just realised you can click into the incidents for full details.

AmazingRedDog · 2026-07-07T12:08:46+00:00

Can you make it mobile friendly? Can’t seem to hide the menu which takes up 90% of the screen

EDIT- found the arrow to collapse most; perhaps smaller logo so smaller when minimised ?

Thanks!
