Norse Atlantic can get you to Europe for cheap. Here's what it's like.
On my hunt for flights to Europe this summer, one airline stood above — or should I say below — the rest. Norse Atlantic Airways, a transatlantic budget airline based in Norway, kept emerging from my Google Flights searches as the most affordable way to get across the pond. Fares were dirt cheap, like a one-way ticket from New York to Berlin for $150.

It's all kicking off! Shocking moment Elderly woman screams foul-mouthed rant at parents after their toddler kicked the back of her seat, sparking mid-air row
This is the dramatic moment an elderly woman shouted and swore at a family in English after their toddler allegedly kicked her seat on a plane. The passenger aboard Hong Kong Express Flight UO597 on Tuesday confronted the couple who were seated behind her. Footage shows the woman yelling at the toddler's parents mid-flight, as fellow passengers turn their heads to watch the commotion. 'Your f****ing kid is kicking my chair', the woman can be heard screaming. 'Your baby is kicking my chair, motherf***er'. The father of the child can be seen arguing with the elderly passenger, while the woman's friend seated next to her is seen standing up in an attempt to diffuse the situation. Local media reported that the heated argument led the flight crew to contact Phu Quoc International Airport for assistance. Eight police officers and three senior inspectors were reportedly waiting at the airport to investigate the incident when the Airbus A320 landed. The mid-flight rant comes after a passenger had a meltdown in an airport after learning her flight had been cancelled, swearing at staff before being detained by police earlier this month. The irate female passenger, who has not been identified, can be seen in a white T-shirt and yellow bottoms cursing at staff for more than a minute in a video clip. She was among many left stranded after a Norse Atlantic Airways flight from Paris to New York was abruptly axed just before midnight on July 3. Fellow passenger Erianne Freign, 27, said the customer was frustrated that the airline would not provide hotel accommodation for her family. Video showed the woman screaming at an airline employee, calling her a 'bi**h' before being escorted behind the desk by security. She then threw the jumper around her waist to the floor and clenched her fists. The crowd gathering around the desk erupted with noise, startled. Erianne, a model from Paris, France, said: 'It was quite an intense reaction.' She explained that the woman had said she was diabetic and needed her medication, and was trying to find accommodation for her and her two children. 'You can tell she was in a panic, but I don't think she should have used such strong language. Especially because the people on the desk aren't responsible.'

Woman dragged away by police after meltdown over canceled flight
A woman had a meltdown in an airport after learning that her flight had been canceled, swearing at staff before she was detained by police. The irate female passenger, who has not been identified, can be seen in a white T-shirt and yellow bottoms cursing at staff for more than a minute in a video clip. She was among many left stranded after a Norse Atlantic Airways flight from Paris to New York was abruptly axed just before midnight on July 3. Fellow passenger Erianne Freign, 27, said the customer was frustrated that the airline would not provide hotel accommodation for her family. Video showed the woman screaming at an airline employee, calling her a 'b***h' before being escorted behind the desk by security.

'You can tell she was in a panic, but I don't think she should have used such strong language. Especially because the people on the desk aren't responsible.' Passengers on flight N0301 from Paris to New York were notified via email that their flight had been canceled due to technical issues just before midnight. Flight data from FlightAware shows a Norse Atlantic Airways 301 flight from Charles de Gaulle airport to John F Kennedy International was canceled on Thursday, July 3. The aircraft was listed as a Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner. The next flight from Paris to New York, also on a B789, was also canceled on July 4, data shows. A third, on July 5, was delayed more than two hours to 10:30pm, flightradar24 data shows. Upon receiving the email, many rushed to the desk to rebook or ask about accommodations. Erianne, who was among those trying to rebook, said passengers were told they'd have to cancel their original booking themselves and find new flights and accommodation on their own. 'I understand why she would be upset because the airline was being so unhelpful,' she said. 'She just wanted some accommodation for her and her two kids because they had canceled the flight in the middle of the night.' Erianne eventually rebooked her flight with a different airline, paying double the price of her original ticket. She said: 'I was able to rebook on a different flight, but it cost me $1,285 because it was so last minute. 'I still haven't gotten a refund from my original flight but I am emailing with them. 'I've just been really disappointed with how it was handled.' Erianne said that passengers already at the airport asked for solutions to rebook and sleep somewhere tonight. She said they were told by staff they had to cancel their flights themselves and then rebook another ticket from another airline. 'The prices were ridiculous,' she said. 'After that, the people that couldn't afford another flight were trying to find a hotel to sleep in. 'But because this happened during the night, that's not the easiest thing to do. 'Some of them slept at the airport with their kids, including this woman.'

According to an arrest report from the Pinellas County Sheriff's Office, Taylor, seated in the last row, allegedly told another traveler that his laptop was an explosive — prompting the shocked passenger to snatch it away. Six people on the Airbus A320, which was carrying 177 passengers and six crew members, reportedly heard the remark. The pilot turned the plane around, landing back in Florida just 40 minutes after takeoff—well short of the typical two-hour flight to Roanoke. Law enforcement met the plane on the tarmac and arrested Taylor on the spot. A full search of his belongings revealed no explosives. Taylor, when questioned by authorities, claimed he had experienced a 'lack of clarity,' according to an FBI report seen by USA Today. He strongly denied making any bomb threats. Taylor appeared in court on Monday, facing charges of conveying false information and threats. If convicted, he could face a fine of up to $25,000 and a prison term of up to five years. 5 Picture of passengers in Charles de Gaulle Airport (file picture) Credit: Getty
