Yippee, Pop the Cork....Kim to the rescue.
They're planning to rent a car so we're going to split it and go exploring with them. I confirmed our dock with Silver Sea, "Mibakki" (used by smaller ships). There's 2 other ships in town that day (AIDAcara and Asotoria) never heard of either one.

I'm relieved and no longer feeling homeless or sequestered in the airport for 9 hours. It still slays me there's 2 Iceland Air non-stops from KEF to Seattle leaving 30 minutes apart. Kim & Alice @ 5:00 and Tom and me @ 5:30.
