It's understandable that LNIDA, employee of Norwegian, attempts to defend the airline. It's like passengers who only care about cheap, cheap tickets. The welfare of the employees is not important, no understanding of aviation safety and believing that pilots are overpaid.

And it's funny how they try to distance themself from Ryanair. Infact, Kjoss is a copy of O'Leary, with the same behavior and ideas. Both are talking about a new world order in the air, where most western airlines will vanish.

Employees of Norwegian are hired on contracts, through external companies. As long as the employee has the minimum requirement, i.e. certificates etc, then they are qualified. Screening of yesterdays are out the window. Should something happend, than they have no responsibilities. Seen this already in the media. Always someone elses fault. And they claim the race to the bottom is safe?! I have heard so many stories, also from their own pilots... No smoke without fire!

Pilot unions and safety organizations from both Europe and USA are now educating the regulators in each country. Even pilots from the biggest low cost airline in the world, Southwest Airlines, are in Oslo now.

Norwegian Air scheme is a virus, and must be stopped!
