Sample flights
There are discounted one-way trips scattered throughout the early months of 2024. For example, you can find a $159 one-way flight from Miami to Paris for Feb. 4.
This price applies to Norse's Economy Light class only, which includes just one personal item. If you want to bring a carry-on bag, it'll cost anywhere from $35 to $85, while a checked bag will cost somewhere between $60 and $125.
Alternatively, you can upgrade from Economy Light to Economy Classic for almost $100 extra, and in return, you'll receive both a carry-on and checked bag as well as meal service during your flight.
There are also deals on round-trip journeys, though the return flights are a bit more expensive than the departing ones. For example, you can fly from Miami to Berlin for $152 one-way Jan. 18.
The return flight Jan. 26 is more expensive, at $243. However, a round-trip total of $395 to a popular European destination is still a good deal.
