Black Friday and Travel Tuesday may have come and gone, but travelers still have plenty of ways to save on an upcoming flight. Norse Atlantic Airways, a growing low-cost carrier that operates flights between the United States and Europe, recently published dozens of discounted round-trip fares starting at $317. Travelers can score deals on flights out of New York, Orlando, Las Vegas, and more U.S. cities to popular European destinations such as Athens, London, and Rome. Best of all, the discounted fares can be booked now for travel throughout 2025. For example, travelers can snag a $395 round-trip economy ticket from New York (JFK) to London (LGW) between October 1, 2025 through October 11, 2025, or a spring break getaway between Orlando, FL (MCO) and London (LGW) in April 2025.Travel + Leisure spotted a variety of round-trip deals including:
In Northern Norway, Facing My Endometriosis Through Nature and Art

This is part of Traveling in Our Bodies, a four-part series that reflects on how women's bodies influence their movement through the world.
I was walking along a rocky beach in Northern Norway when I suddenly fell. The summer was unseasonably warm—a distinct lack of snow and ice on the looming glacier before me—and, overheating, I was wrestling to take my sweater off when a stack of unsteady stones gave way beneath me. I hit the ground, laughed, and only spent a moment taking in the short-lived pain in my right hip. Then a deeper realization hit: This was the first time I had felt inhibited by my own body in days. That's because, the month prior, I spent an entire night sweating and twitching in pain on the floor of a bathroom in Beacon, New York.
My partner and I were spending a weekend away from our home in Brooklyn to antique, have dinner at one of our favorite restaurants (Quinn’s, don’t miss it), and enjoy more than a couple of hours playing the Jurassic Park game at the Happy Valley barcade. After nodding off for 30 minutes on our second night, I shot up in bed; the culmination of 20 years of intense pain searing through me. Waves of contractions, only minutes apart, rolled over my entire body. A nasty little symptom casually known as “lightning crotch” made it impossible to walk. I crawled to the bathroom. After years of this spontaneous pain with no clear diagnosis, the only thing to do when it happens is to cocoon into myself, count my breaths for hours, and dig my nails into my palms. But that night marked the first time I openly wondered if some unnamed thing inside of my body was going to kill me.
And then, the thought I feel privileged to admit came next: “How am I supposed to spend a week on a remote island in Northern Norway?”
According to the World Health Oganization, roughly 10 percent of those with female reproductive organs experience endometriosis worldwide. It's not uncommon for people to live undiagnosed, never having a name for these symptoms. The condition means that your uterine cells grow outside of the uterus causing tissue build-up and scarring—and a lot of pain—and there is no cure. After that flare up, I finally found a doctor who agreed with me that my symptoms weren’t “just gas” as many other physicians had suggested, and I didn’t need to lose any weight (by far the most common prescription I've received), diagnosing me based on what I was feeling and my family history. It’s worth noting that this chronic condition is never fully confirmed until a person has undergone exploratory surgery—a procedure that insurance companies don’t often cover, leaving lots of room for major issues to slip by unseen.
Hearing a professional assure me that I wasn’t imagining the extent of
