It amazes me just how deeply some people have their heads in the sand when it comes to Norwegian.

The fundamental issue is that the business model doesn’t work....they haven’t suddenly hit upon some magic formula that no one else was aware of.

You cannot build a fleet of very expensive aircraft, expand the way they have and do it charging £170 to fly to the West Coast of the US. The ‘defenders of the faith’ are here blaming everything but the elephant in the room...if 1 airport closing for 1 day can almost push you under then there are very very serious problems with your business.

I believe it is only still here because its owners are too proud to admit their crack at the low cost long haul experiment has failed yet again, and keep throwing good money after bad. It’s only a matter of time until the whole shooting match collapses.
