New York to Paris on budget Norwegian 787

Bit hairy jumping on a plane this morning after the latest catastrophe. We were on Norwegian out of New York - chosen by yours truly because the aircraft was a Dreamliner. This was my first experience on Boeing's pride and joy and a dream flight it was. I expected the interior to look a little less conventional than it did - but perhaps this was a budget layout. Norwegian by the way was one of the first European carriers to enforce the two people in the cockpit at all times rule.

The service on board was fine - seating a bit cramped perhaps. Goodies included a reasonable selection of movies and WiFi. Norwegian is the only budget carrier to fly across the Atlantic. We will be in Paris for a few days researching for a new book before heading to Provence and Grasse. Crazy as it seems, one way fares from New York to Paris can cost $2000pp and more.
