I guess you could knit with both although I'm less sure about pens. A knitting needle is shaped like a pencil. One thing to watch out for when you are knitting with pencils is that the lead could (most likely) get on your yarn and you would have blotches of black on your finished project. As for pens, I'm less sure because if you have an uncapped pen you are going to have to deal with the ink that's going to get on your yarn. If you have a capped pen, the pen itself will be uneven and it will be hard. Ballpoint pens are usually curved in shape, but you could try. I've tried sharpening the ends of those disposable chopsticks and knitting with them. They worked fairly well. I think that you could knit with both, but I can't gurantee your success rate.

Can you bring knitting needles on Icelandair?

I think you are allowed knitting needles in your luggage that goes into the plane hold (main luggage), but you are not allowed them in your hand luggage because they can be classed as dangerous. If you want to knit on the plane, I have used pens before. If you use some thin pens or pencils, that should work.
