The Sunday Times is reporting that Norwegian have applied for a UK AOC
Looks like there will be some vacant office space in Imbus House, Dublin.

One point missed in this marathon of union busting by Kjos, is that all those who oppose NAI in the USA have been watching events very closely indeed.

The AFL CIO and its affiliate unions, with 12.7 million members, is an opposing party to the NAI, Foreign Air Carrier Permit application, as are the 60,000 members of ALPA.

A UK AOC would change nothing. The Norwegian Airline Group has its principal place of business in non EU Member State, Norway. EFTA and EEA Agreements do not include the EU US Open Skies Agreement.

Too many "yes men" surround Kjos and compete to blow wind up his ass. Kjos will always have labour problems because he has no empathy whatsoever for workers standards, rights and principles.
