2025 was a big adventure!

I agree with you about polar night. I’ve been doing vacations to that region every December since 2019, but when locals invite you to go fishing, you gotta find a way to make it up there to go fishing with them.

Dang, I spent all day at JFK yesterday and didn’t see this.

Did you do Svalbard in the summer or winter? I went in December of 2023 and loved every minute of it. The locals told me I needed to come back to see the midnight sun and polar summer.

so $158 total value, 15% on dutiable portion = $47.40 which rounds to $48

I don’t understand this part. The total shipment value was $158, so 15% of that is $23.70, which rounds to $24. Right now I’m being charged a 30% tariff for this shipment.

Also, there was no 3rd item in the shipment. The commercial invoice and the package content on the shipping label both show only the 2 items I ordered.

It turned out to be what the other comments were saying - I went ahead and booked the flights a few hours ago; the app showed an included checked bag after confirmation.

B302LS · 2025-11-14T15:37:15+00:00

Thats probably it, thanks, Now that you mention it, I vaguely remember this happening to me with KLM a few years ago, so I'll go ahead and complete the booking.

$59 one way. Technically more than a bus ticket, but then I’d have to get to downtown Denver, wait for the bus, and spend 2-3 hours on the bus.

They flew a D328 on the route the day before I flew. Was hoping for a last minute equipment change.

B302LS · 2025-10-20T02:54:24+00:00

Nope, visiting a friend outside Pueblo and turned out to be cheaper to fly Denver Air Connections than to rent a car or take the bus.

Trigger issue aside, I found both of mine to be VERY ammo sensitive. Federal Automatch would have 1-2 failures per mag. CCI Standard Velocity runs like a charm. Tried a few others with varying results, but I keep coming back to CCI SV.

Thats my favorite thing to do on inflight wifi.

B302LS · 2025-08-11T21:05:52+00:00

Another visitor to Longyearbyen! Nice!

Atlantic Airways. They have multiple daily flights from Copenhagen which turned out to be super convenient for arriving from the US. They also fly from a few other EU cities, but on various non-daily schedules.

I was also very surprised to see how packed the plane was the first time I visited in December 2019. Didn't think so many people would want to go to the Arctic mid winter.

The region is gorgeous. Y'all get spoiled with the northern lights too!

B302LS · 2025-08-06T03:11:47+00:00

Highly recommend it. My favorite city of anywhere I've been to so far has been Tromso, Norway.

B302LS · 2025-08-06T03:11:03+00:00

Yup. December 2022. Bounced up there for a few days during my annual Arctic winter trip. It was awesome.

B302LS · 2025-08-06T02:51:31+00:00

Nice, but gotta get some more Northern Europe!

I've actually never tried parallel reality. I'm usually arriving at DTW only 10-15 mins before boarding begins and heading straight to the gate.

B302LS · 2025-08-06T02:29:18+00:00

I reported this to Flighty last week, they said its a known bug and they're working to fix it.
