Norwegian discontinue transatlantic flights from Ireland
Norwegian have just announced they'll discontinue transatlantic flights from Ireland from 15th September 2019.
A shame really, especially for those crew affected. https://www.aviation24.be/airlines/n...eptember-2019/ https://www.rte.ie/news/business/201...lantic-routes/ |
Thanks to the 737 MAX grounding :ugh:
|
Max unlikely to have been the root cause. More like underlying revenue return which many believe was flawed from its inception. Trust the crews have better luck in securing positions. |
Nice pic on BBC Online news tonight showing nose of unknown Norwegian aircraft and the tail of Monarch G-OZBF.
No attempt then to use up-to-date photo. Sloppy. |
Sorry for the crews and staff.
Cork airport's long term ambition to have direct transatlantic flights was used as a lobbying tool with the Irish and US governments to allow the Norwegian EI set up. They've now lost the routes for the second time in a decade (remember Fly Globespan?) A failed strategy which may have opened the door to further undermining of T and C's in the coming recession. |
Norwegian were very shaky financially even before the MAX was grounded.
