session variable won't display

I am trying to send POST data into a SESSION variable

$_SESSION['plan'] = $_POST['plan']

info.php show that sessions are loaded. browser -> inspect element appears to show sessions initialized but no key => values.

But I cannot get the session value to display. no errors in apache logs.

main dynamic frame:

cat index.php


<?php
session_start();
?>

<div id="content">
        <?php
                $pages_dir = 'pages';
                if (!empty($_GET['p'])) {
                        $pages = scandir($pages_dir, 0);
                        unset($pages[0], $pages[1]);
                        $p=$_GET['p'];
                        if(in_array($p.'.inc.php', $pages)){
                                include($pages_dir.'/'.$p.'.inc.php');
                        }else {
                                echo 'Sorry, page not found.';
                        }
                }else{
                        include($pages_dir.'/home.inc.php');
                }
        ?>

</div>
</body>

</html>

User form page:

cat pages/payment.inc.php


<?php
//$_SESSION['plan'] = $_POST['plan'];
?>
<div id="content_pay">

<form action="pages/scheckout.php" method="post">
        <div>

                <input type="radio" id="plan1" name="plan" value="2500"> Beta membership <br><br>
                <input type="radio" id="plan2" name="plan" value="3500"> VIP membership <br><br>

                <label for="plan"> If you would like to pay another amount, enter the amount here:</label>
                <input type="text" id="plan3" name="plan" />
                <br>
                <label for="invoice_num"> Enter the invoice number here:</label>
                <input type="text" name="invoice_num" /> <br>
                <input type="submit" value="submit" name="submit">
        </div>
</form>


</div>

Basically this page is here just to capture the POST and assign it to SESSION then redirect with SESSION loaded:

cat pages/scheckout.php


<?php
session_start();

$_SESSION['plan'] = $_POST['plan'];

//needed to prevent weird race conditions
session_write_close();
header("location: ../index.php?p=scheckout");
die();

echo "<br>";
echo $_SESSION['plan'];

?>

Where is goes to:

cat pages/scheckout.inc.php


<?php

require_once('pages/sconfig.php');

?>

<div id="content_pay">

<form action="pages/scharge.php" method="post">
        <div>


        <script src="http://ift.tt/1doUtf9" class="stripe-button"
                data-key="<?php echo $stripe['publishable_key']; ?>"
                myElem.setAttribute('data-amount', <?php $_SESSION['plan']; ?>);
                myElem.setAttribute('data-description', <?php $_SESSION['plan']; ?>); >
        </script>
        </div>

</form>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>


<?php
echo $_SESSION['plan'];
?>

How do I get SESSIONS loaded from POST to display?
