Booking Norwegian Air and paying in NOK as a US citizen

This question is for any of you who have flown Norwegian already. I have been reading online about booking it through the Norwegian language portion of their website, meaning you are buying the ticket in NOK rather than US dollars and saving $ substantially. I've compared the prices and found it true; however I am a little hesitant to book (which I need to do today) because I'm wondering if there's any problem when you get to the airport and to customs as a US citizen with tickets in the Norwegian language.

Tickets are always in English so this won't be an issue. Make sure your credit card accepts the foreign transaction, you may have to do something like press a button on an email or even call.

You will start to receive spam in Norwegian.

I had read some very good reviews of the premium economy (better than main cabin with extra room, better reclining seats, extra perks, but still not business class--but at a very good price compared to business/first). So that's why I was considering them. Then when I heard about further savings by booking in Norwegian I really looked into it. It helps to pull up the English site and go through it simultaneously while booking on the Norwegian language site so you don't make any mistakes. I booked mine Sat. and the ticket is in both English and Norwegian so I don't anticipate any problems!! I saved approx. $200 by doing it in the Norwegian language on 2 premium economy one way tickets from Orlando to London.
