With the difference that Norwegian Crew are employed by a french employer. I am Well aware of the DTAs. But don’t assume that all CDG crew lives outside France, and those who do can also be asked to pay taxes in France according to the relevant DTA.
CDG and LGW were the cash cows on longhaul for Norwegian. They flew significant number of flights from CDG and LGW. It will be in everybodys interest to keep that as it is.
