With 11 787-9 To be delivered in 2018 I would expect to see further route announcements from LGW during the spring together with frequency increases, JFK 3 times daily if the can get the right slot at JFK

Many rumours are doing the rounds about a package of shall we say interesting long narrow body destinations.

I’ll believe it when it’s on my roster

Any expansion by Norwegian to other airports in the USA would no doubt include Baltimore at some point I should imagine.

The dedicated bus transfer between SWF & NYC announced that they’ve just carried their 50’000 passenger since operations commenced back in June 17

This bus is timed around Norwegians flights and waits if the flight is running late.

According to Wikipedia, 30 A321LR begin to be delivered next year. The structure of the airline and its Wikipedia entries is such that I can't be bothered to run through all the subsidiaries.

My memory tells me that they ordered 100 A320s to be leased out rather than operated.

Just got an email saying my LGW-OAK booking in Sep has been changed from a DY operated flight to a DI one, of course this makes no odds in the wider world but.....

Up until now, only LGW-SIN has flown under the DI "Red Nose" banner. Everything else has been under DY "Norshuttle".
What's the rationale for only this one route until now?

Norwegian Air UK has been around for a while, firstly with a single B737 and latterly with a new fleet of G- registered B787-9s, as well as a couple of LN- ones too. Is it a paperwork thing and now everything LGW based and on the UK register will be DI leaving the Irish 737s as D8 "Nortrans"?

There is always a cost for low prices so how do Norwegian do it especially as HQ is in one of worlds most expensive countries

Why does Uk allow foreign entities to make money at our expense -with Brexit in place we can evict Norwegian and Ryanair can't we ?

After all could hardly do a reciprocal deal to attack new customers in Norway which has the population of Watford , our Government would never allow a foreign airline of debately financial stability to siphon off huge amounts of UK based traffic in ridiculously un-balanced traffic relationships would they?

It's called the free market. Also Norwegian have an UK AOC so they are a UK airline and what they are doing is no different to Easyjet in the EU.

pax britanica.

So the answer would be?...

Would it entail perhaps handing over wads of money to the status quo again for air travel such as BA?...which actually is part of an International Grouping anyway!!

Be careful agendas are slipping.

It more than that, to evict the Norwegians and Ryanairs you would also have to evict BA and VS as they will both be majority owned by non UK entities.

It is likely that Norwegian will be allowed to retain its UK operations after Brexit. It is in the UK's interests, well understood by all, that our economy will thrive when as open and as free as possible. Expect Wizzair, IAG, EasyJet, Ryanair and Norwegian to continue operations uninterrupted.

Yup agree..

I just pulled BA out as one example...the list would go on for sure..

TUI..TCX for 2 more..

Why end with pax ops..

Overseas cargo ops listing would be extensive..

Pax Brit

Actually Norwegian UK is a UK company with a very significant presence in the UK where it employees upwards of a 1000 people who pay taxes to the UK Government, it buys RR engines for its Dream liner fleet of which there will be 32 787 on the fleet by year end.

As a UK registered airline it will not be effected in respect of UK traffic rights when/if Brexit happens
