Thats really cool! Is this done for both the way in to the country and also on the way out?
Also, is it everything in duty free?
I’m actually not sure if it’s going in and out, but I assume so. It is only in the “click and collect” part of duty free though so had to pre book the order online at least 2 hours before going there
Check out this note for clarifications:
✈️ You can pay for everything at the duty free shop Tax Free Norway AKA Travel Retail Norway AS, upon arrival at Oslo Airport Gardemoen.
"This option currently applies only to Click & Collect upon arrival at Oslo, but TRN is considering expanding to other stores and payment formats."
Check out previous notes for more information, e.g. in the English and Norwegian press releases from Tax Free Norway 🇳🇴

Seems steep for lightning fee!
The fee depends on the lightning wallet you’re paying from, nostr:nprofile1qqsy7nuzs3nf3lmx4e06n7k5crzwk7pr47c8l204f65azhcjz7hfdnqpzamhxue69uhhyetvv9ujucm4wfex2mn59en8j6gpzpmhxue69uhkummnw3ezuamfdejs7e9s4l

When the market develops, the costs will fall in time. But it’s still very early days right now.
Phoenix Wallet by ACINQ currently has a monopoly on a good UX splicing wallet.

I remember buying lightning ear rings after spending an entire day trying (pre-pandemic)…and it was a few years after that that I was able to get my unspent funds out of that channel…I was way way way to early to lightning for my skill level.
