I’m doing to Bergen-Oslo train and am very excited.

Last time we took that train from Oslo to Bergen they wanted $98pp for standard seat or $127pp for the Plus seats. Scrolling down the VY website page further I saw that they had this amazing special on the 6 berth cabins. Only $169 for each cabin. Absolutely fantastic trip

If you really want to see polar bears then Churchill Canada is the place.. They even have a polar bear jail.
Go June to August and see the Beluga whales. An amazing experience.

And of course the only time there is at an airport is beer time and the time your flight departs
