NORWEGIAN $65 TRANSATLANTIC US -> UK/IRELAND FLIGHTS ARE ON!!!!

HO MY GAWD YOU GUYS, NORWEGIAN HAS FINALLY RELEASED THEIR $65 TRANSATLANTIC FLIGHTS!!!!!!!!!!!!
Here's the lowdown: fly from a few lesser-used US airports near New York, Boston, and Hartford into Edinburgh, Cork, Dublin, Belfast, or Shannon for literally $65 on select dates starting in mid-June. Lining up a cheap return ticket can be hard, but if you check the fare calendars, you'll see that there are tickets coming back for only 69 GBP, which is like $86, or maybe a few dollars less if you can pay in euros instead. Fly mid-June until next February. Check it out!

We have been waiting for this for over a year, so this is SO EXCITING!

In case you're new to Norwegian, here's the lowdown. There are NO hidden taxes or fees, but neither are there any freebies. Expect no free meals, no free checked bags, no free cancellation or free changes, and no free seat reservation. You do get a free carry-on and personal item, with a combined weight of only 10 kg. I am like 95% sure you also get free movies, and they advertise free wifi on flights within Europe, not sure about long-haul. I've found their planes to be pretty comfy, as planes go. For the $65 flights, they picked airports that are a bit of a hassle to get to, but Google Maps and Rome2Rio know how to get anywhere, so use those if you get stuck!
