Well, I feel that I should chime in.
Having worked for Norwegian for 3 years, I tend to agree with most of what Bondi and Captainplaystation are saying about Norwegian. Furthermore, I can say that it is disingenuous to suggest that Norwegian captains are making 16k per month. Yes there might be a few Mgmt type pilots who are on that type of money. But as a regular non-Scandinavian based captain the pay is more along the lines of 10k per month, or even less if based in the US or Italy.
And as to Norwegian asking pilot to leave (fired), I think that the number was around 50 just a few winters ago.
Having said all of this, I did enjoy my time in Norwegian. And if it wasn't for all the broken promises, I would have stayed.
