Apr 13, 2022 (newstodate): The new Norwegian long-haul carrier Norse Atlantic Airways has now obtained the full go-ahead from the US Department of Transportation.
   On April 2, 2022, DOT awarded a foreign air carrier permit to Norse Atlantic Airways after reviewing all incoming views and objections from interested parties since Norse filed its application with DOT on January 14, 2022.
   Norse is now free to operate scheduled and charter flights with passengers and cargo between any points in Norway and the EU and any point in the USA.
   On January 14, 2022, the airline scored a first major breakthrough with the US DOT's approval for the 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.
   In May 2021, Norse Atlantic succeeded in landing a pre-hire agreement with the U.S. Association of Flight Attendants, and on December 29, 2021, Norse Atlantic Airways received its AOC by the Norwegian FAA.
