You mean Norwegian II : Back From Insolvency
https://flynorse.com/
"Norse Atlantic Airways believes that there is a need for a new and innovative airline serving the low-cost intercontinental market as the world re-opens. The new airline will offer comfortable flights with fuel-efficient and more environmentally friendly Boeing 787 Dreamliners."
It's not NEW it's a warmed up and relaunched Norwegian Long Haul using the same aicraft and probably the same staff coming back by necessity as the "Rednose Warriors" are recalled. As for innovating, they mean doing EXACTLY what was done before but having written off the enormous debts accumulated in version one.

Cathay will want to get up to speed on 5 x daily slot holding at LHR first and I think China Airlines are super keen on LHR, however Air China may be back but it depends on how fast that market recovers. It looks like they're moving towards military intervention in Taiwan so who knows!
