US Embassies in neighbouring Denmark, Sweden and Finland were open.

Hmmmmm... I've always viewed these nations, along with Norway and Iceland as being friendly,
but I can't really see where an embassy would be very busy in any of them.
How about we try to save a little money and have just one embassy shared between the five of 'em?

Because the nations are large and have lots of US interests and companies and expatriates. Hell, we have an embassy in Malta and one in Luxemborg.

We do however have a mega embassy in Fiji that covers Tonga, Tuvalu, Vanuatu, Samoa, Niue, Nauru, and one in Maritius that covers the Seychelles and the Maldives and a few other scattered areas.
