Bergen residents were extremely friendly and helped us to get to our destination after we got lost in the city.

Travel experience with Virgin Australia to Newcastle

I am George from Finland. Last month I visited my long time childhood friend who relocated to Bergen. I was highly impressed of Scandinavian Airlines. Scandinavian Airlines is not my regular travel airline but I was fully satisfied. I purchased my ticket to Bergen online when Scandinavian were offering 15% off any ticket bought that month. Amazingly, they delivered the ticket to my door after purchasing the ticket three days earlier. The travel experience was pleasant, from boarding to embarking with exceptionally friendly staff. I will certainly purchase Scandinavian ticket again in the future to visit my friend in Bergen.
