Lens recommendation for Iceland (travel + aurora photography)

Hello All,

I am planning a trip to Iceland for end of November, and I am confused about the lens that I should buy for the trip for my Canon r50 apsc camera.

I want something that helps me capture the northern lights and the majestic landscapes. For this purpose, I have short listed:

Canon rf 16 mm f2.8,

Rokinon 14mm f2.8, and

Tokina 11-20mm f2.8.

My concern is that Rokinon and Tokina seem to flare up when exposed to a beam of light, show a bit of vignetting and chromatic aberrations. And, Canon rf 16mm might be narrow, given the 1.6x crop factor of my apsc lens. Therefore, I would like to get some advice on what best lens to buy.

Additionally, I am looking for a lens for travel photography, and I wonder if any of the above lens would suffice. If not, I was thinking to canon rf28 mm or Canon ef24 f2.8.

Please advice! My budget is $500-600. And, at the moment, I just have the Canon rf18-45 mm kit lense (something that I already find pretty boring)
