Peeping Tøm: A voyeur’s view of the Helsinki Cathedral
Itâs like another planet over there in the land of the Norse: “O”s with slashes through them, runic stones, Viking dragon ships, blue-eyed blondes, and lots of ’em.
But, unlike most European destinations, which appear to be costing about as much as space tourism this year (Since when is nearly $1,000 RT to Paris on American a sale fare?), you don’t have to break the bank to get over there, thanks to SASâs late spring/early summer promo.
For outbound travel through May 31, 2007:
* From Newark to Copenhagen, Oslo or Stockholm – $249
* From Newark to Helsinki (If you were there, you’d be at the Eurovision finals by now!) – $279
For outbound travel from June 1 through June 22, 2007:
* From Newark to Copenhagen, Oslo or Stockholm – $279
* From Newark to Helsinki – $299
These one-way fares (based on RT purchases, btw) are easily $200-$300 more in the middle of summer. Valhalla, ya’ll!
