What is going to change in Norwegian’s short term to allow them to become profitable?

Do they have any specific reasons to expect strong yield growth? (ie failure of competitors or large increase in demand)

If not, is there a reasonable expectation that they are going to dramatically reduce their cost base? Still no?

I am genuinely interested to find out what I am missing here.
