My point was that its not an everyday occurrence that you can plan a trip around. Even if you happened to get super lucky in the dead of winter to have everything work in your favor ... its not like you're going to see what you see in pics. Most often its very faint to the point you're not sure if you're seeing anything or not and rarely with any color other than green.
Additionally, it would be a horrible trip to fly to the middle of nowhere in Alaska (where you have a high probability of being weathered in) when you can just as easily do it in Sweden or Finland or Russia or Norway or wherever and actually have a real life experience that won't be disappointing no matter what happens.
BTW... You also have a better chance of running into a Koala Bear in Melbourne than you do in LA... that doesn't mean its likely to happen ;)
