Most of the booths at the terminal accept Norwegian cash, but we prefer cards. It's so much easier. We are bound by law to accept cash in Norway, but as technology has evolved, and there are so many alternatives to payment, we hardly ever use it anymore. I work for the CityTrain Sightseing in Haugesund, and the prices we operate with are NOK 320 for adults, 150 for children (age 3-15), and 750 for a family (2+2). This would be around £24 for adults, £11-12 for children, and £56-57 for a family. Cash is a bit more, as adults then cost NOK350, or about £26. We, the CityTrain, accept Norwegian Krone, or any form of debit- or creditcard payment, including Apple- and GooglePay. The Norwegian prices are fixed, so there is no hidden fees from us. What is displayed on the Zettle terminal we use, is what you pay us. If there is any fee other than that, then it is your bank that adds them :) One of the reasons many don't accept foreign currency is because it's so expensive to exchange them for a company, espcially a smaller company. After covid, the only company that has a contract for accepting foreign currency is Loomis, and then out of France. That contract was EXTREMELY expensive, and for us to just brake even, the prices would be just too high. So I apologize for that, but that's just how it is these days. Anyway, Welcome to Norway, hope you had a wonderful time here, and hope you will be back some day to try out the train as well :)

Hi, I watched your embarkation video and this one. Great to see your videos so will follow along. Quick questions, I will be going on first ever cruise on Arvia soon. Any advice on dealing with WIFI and phones. I keep hearing stories of high phone bills when getting home....I know you can turn your phone to Fight mode but with 2 teenagers I really want to protect against high bills. Any tips would be great. Also how bad is Bay of Biscay? Did the ship rock a lot in those conditions?

Hi there 👋 Thank you so much for watching and commenting. I just made sure that my mobile data was off as soon as I boarded. Then I only used Internet based calls (messenger or WhatsApp). I always buy the Internet package but it can be costly per device, so we bought 1 package and used the hot spot for other devices (one at a time). All ports will have free Internet so most people just go onshore to connect and catch up. And yes, the Bay of Biscay is well known for bad seas, but it honestly wasn't THAT bad, even in December when I went! I quite enjoyed the slight rocking motion to help me sleep! ☺️ I really hope you have a fantastic cruise! We've got more cruise videos to follow! 🛳😊 Happy travels! Kris - TPT

Hi Linda! 😊 The trip in this video was filmed last month. We were lucky enough to have gone to Orlando for a month. We are currently on a Norwegian Fjords cruise with P & O. None of these trips were prizes unfortunately. As we've been travelling as much as possible over the past few months I haven't had the chance to enter many competitions so I haven't had a lot of winnings to unbox. I love comping and I miss it, but love to travel too. I'm really hoping to be back on Luckily Charmed later this year 🤞 I hope you are doing well Linda and I send you lots of luck 💗 Kris xxx

The flat bed in this old plane is much more comfortable than the bed in the new A330NEO where you can't bend you legs.. Also the extra cost for Upper Class is less for the return leg than the outward leg (tax). Given the choice the return leg with a flat bed for an overnight flight is when you really notice the difference.

Hi there! Yes, I was charged a £20 admin fee for my Doctors note. In answer to your other question - if you have a return time for Hagrids (for example) you can't use your pass to collect any other return times until you go on Hagrids, BUT you can use your pass to ride anything with a wait time of under 30 minutes as you can just walk onto these using your pass and don't need a return time.
