Your Journey Beta

27 minutes into the flight: Some moderate bumps expected.
The crew may adjust altitude or ask you to stay seated during these sections.
The rest of the flight should be smooth.

Your route takes you crossing the North Atlantic Ocean and over the Scandinavian Mountains – these areas can sometimes cause light turbulence.
