Gotta agree with AndreiJikh, as per his comment on this video, this is one of the coolest things I've ever seen on the internet.

Those transitions too...

Free luggage, free seat reservation, free Fastrack and bonus points. :)

During the height of the pandemic Norwegian (the aviation company I've been flying the most with the last decade or so) extended the span of time in which your flights could qualify for rewards, and so for at least a while I managed to get pretty much all of them simultaneously! As seen above.

Good times. They lasted about a year, during an era in which airports overall were sparse with people, and planes sometimes almost empty... though it definitely wouldn't have been sustainable in the long run I truly enjoyed flying when barely anybody else did.

The Norwegian Reward system's been reformed a bit since.

The timespan for qualification is the same, but you need more flights to get even just one of these now... I hope to get free luggage again soon, but alas the full range of these is probably no longer a possibility for me.

It'd require flying at least every other week.

Here's the initial notice you received when visiting the recently redesigned 100 Words for the first time last year.

I'm not sure I 100% like the new design over the old design even now - the old one was charming in its own way, and more about the writing than the layout; the frills that come with it now. But they did squash a bundle of bugs, and it's both faster and feature-rich now!

So I do appreciate the new, until this too is old and views change, which in this world we skew... let's keep writing this through.

Screencap for posterity.

The Frigatebird And The Partial Eclipse may be even cooler though!
