Sep 27, 2022 (newstodate): The new Norwegian long-haul carrier Norse Atlantic Airways has now received its AOC and Operating License from the British CAA.
   The UK green lights allow the company to operate direct non-stop flights from the United Kingdom, a  key part of its business plan since the inception of the airline in March 2021, and Norse Atlantic Airways is now well-positioned for ramping up its operations between London and the US in the Summer 2023 schedule.
    Norse Atlantic took off from Gatwick to New York JFK on its opening flight on August 12, 2022, operating via Oslo due to the lack of its UK AOC and license, and is now providing a daily rotation on the first route from London Gatwick expanding to flights to Los Angeles, San Francisco, Chicago and Washington.
    The transatlantic direct nonstop services from the UK market will be provided by a fleet of eight Boeing 787-9 aircraft on UK registers as part of a fleet comprising 15 aircraft in service in summer 2022.
