Used to be that if you took the middle tier (seat+bag+meal) you'd be able to select any economy seat for free, including first and exit rows. I checked a bunch of long- and short-haul flights yesterday and they are now charging extra for first row, exit row, and front of the plane. Price varied by seat and route - around $8.50 for a short-haul front seat, to around $70 for long-haul exit row.

Not sure when this change happened, but a few weeks ago those seats were still definitely free.

Note that TAs can still select any available seat, but their fare basis is higher (although it comes with 2 bags, not one). Also, you can't use the NOK trick to save a bunch of $$$'with them

Smart of them. Pain in the @$$ for condiments but moves like this will push them toward sustainability.

You’re headed back to Lofoten?

Not this time, doing Finnish Lapland instead (although a couple of my guys are doing Lofoten though).
