This surge in demand necessitates early planning, particularly regarding travel logistics. Balslev emphasizes that his packages do not include airfare,requiring fans to manage those arrangements themselves. He cautions against using unfamiliar third-party ticket and travel providers, recommending established and reputable companies instead.
“After 40 years in the industry,I have seen what Norwegians have to take care of: Do not buy airline tickets via third handle suppliers you do not know who is.Use famous players,” Balslev stated.
Beyond flights, he advises verifying hotel bookings directly through official websites and exercising caution with rental car reservations. He also warns against the use of unofficial or “black exchange” tickets, noting their increasing rarity and inherent risks.”Take care of a rental car and check the hotels against official pages.
