Mar 17, 2022 (newstodate): Citing the current market situation, heavily impacted by war in Ukraine diving fuel prices up and increasing general uncertainties, the new Norwegian long haul carrier Norse is again postponing launch of services.
Plans are now to lift off on the first flights in June 2022, with booking to open in April - no definite dates yet announced.
Norse has secured slots at London Gatwick Airport to secure flights out of the UK market, while the coming route network will be announced only when ticket sales are launched.
On the tarmac at Oslo Airport are now nine Boeing 787 aircraft leased from BOC Aviation and formerly operated by Norwegian, with the remaining six to be delivered consecutively in the coming months.
Norse Atlantic Airways plans to be operating transatlantic flights on routes from Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport to Oslo, Paris, and London.
In the plans are also flights from Oslo Airport to Ontario near Los Angeles, and to Newburgh near New York - both secondary airports serving major destinations at competitive airport charges.
