Remember, Trump is all about whats best for America and American companies. If a bunch of Nordics come flexing their muscles, Boeing just needs to pick up the phone...

Flyboy, yes I am aware that NAS terminated the contracts with OSM and paid the remaining debts by share issues, but the "language" is confusing in as much as
NOTE: taken over responsibilities for the "Companies" .. Had NAS closed OSM and "taken on", i.e issued contracts of employment to crews this would be completely different scenario and mean UK crews could no longer get furlough payments.
NAS would not qualify
the New Norwegian that we now take over the entire and full responsibility for the companies where we have our flying staff employed,” commented Norwegian’s chief executive Jacob Schram on today’s news.
Employee transfers under TUPE and on a change in ownership
the new employer needs to have previously submitted a claim for the employees in relation to a furlough period of at least 3 consecutive weeks taking place any time between 1 March 2020 and 30 June.

Lets hope so, although I doubt it because:
Under TUPE, following an asset transfer or a service provision change, employees transfer automatically to the transferee on identical terms and conditions of employment.

Should this be the case then I agree, however , no one has any idea of who the employer is.. my thoughts coincide with yours that OSM was simply "bought out" by NAS, the contracts will still be with OSM but HR responsibilities handled directly in Oslo. Some seem to think that OSM are completely out of the frame and the "new employment " will be with NAS directly, in which case its about as clear as cat 3

I just think it’s great news that Norwegian (&Virgin) are flying again long haul. Willie Walsh must have been taking his entire career on one or both of them not surviving this. I truly hope they prove him wrong.

It’s confusing because you are quoting from a press statement rather than the actual MOU that was issued to OSM Employees. It is merely a change of ownership, not a change of companies so the JRS is unaffected.
It was previously a JV agreement with Norwegian already owning a majority share.
The Employer is now NAR. OSM will have nothing to do with the New Norwegian at all. They probably will move into aviation training to a greater degree.
