No freaking way! My flight from London to Reykyjavik was on Icelandair’s Hekla Aurora aircraft! The one with the interior aurora borealis lights. The one that I was tweeting at Icelandair to see if it would be flown on any of my routes.
The bummer? Because my flight was during the day, the lights wouldn’t be on. How’s that for irony!?
Still, I took it as a sign and was pretty happy to end my vacation on the Hekla Aurora aircraft. But next time, I hope that I can experience these northern lights on an overnight flight. Or better yet, outside my window, as we fly 35,000+ feet above the earth.
Here are some shots of the amazing earth from above:
I just love the view from up here.
