Though, you may want to check the Duty Free onboard
your flight to see if they have the special plane promo - I can't
remember the number - it's a plane with a small air tower, but pricey at

Two notes...

1 - this, like all onboard promo sets is packed much much more densely

Europe, do it. I would have said something before you left but I thought
