Trip Report: Chasing the Northern Lights

Greetings from the Lufthansa Lounge at JFK T1!
Mrs. H2O and I just flew up from Austin to catch our Swiss Business Class flight to Prague via Zurich.
It's our first big trip of 2024 and likely one of the last for a while as H2O Jr. is due at the end of May. We're treating this as a babymoon and are spending 10 days in Europe with stops in Prague, Tromso, and Stockholm.
I'll try to keep my posts as real time as possible but my Twitter/X, Instagram, Website will have the most up to date reporting.

I assume you'd recognize Beck's so guessing it was Brinkhoff's, some Ruhr valley pils...

Just Googled it and that looks right. Currently having breakfast on SWISS 17, which is odd since it's 10:00p on my body clock. Early afternoon departures to Europe are always strange.

Well, I spent all of my time on the vacation enjoying myself and no time on any trip reporting. Back home now so here we go!
To kick off our trip we first had to position up to New York. We booked these flights a few days before departure as our original United itinerary had some issues and we rebooked on Swiss.
Delta Comfort+ from AUS-JFK and we had a friendly crew and a smooth ride. After landing, we headed to the new Delta Sky Club in Concourse A to wait out part of our layover.

That's as far as I've gotten so far. The lights we saw were out of this world though.

Pretty sure your bubbly water there is calling you a girl.

It was pretty terrible, even with the OJ mixed in.
