Would You Pay To Use The Overhead Bin During A Flight

Norwegian AirA couple of days back I wrote about a flight that I booked from NYC-Amsterdam for $356 roundtrip.

A little over a month back, I wrote about “Beijing, China- $291 Roundtrip, A Deal Too Good To Pass Up.”

Around 10 days later, reports started coming out about the coronavirus. At first it didn’t seem to be bad but as the days passed, the reports got worse. I decided to call Expedia to cancel my flight without penalty. I wrote an update about that $291 roundtrip deal to Beijing.

I’ll be returning to a country I last visited almost 20 years back and Lucas will be visiting for the first time. We’ll also be trying an airline we’ve never flown with before. More details will be coming in an upcoming post.
