During the pandemic, while some airlines faced challenges, others found opportunities. Norse Atlantic, a long-haul low-cost carrier, emerged by acquiring Norwegian's Boeing 787s to attempt the long-haul low-cost business model. However, two years into operations, Norse Atlantic is still facing financial difficulties and has turned to a mix of scheduled and wet lease flights.
Data from Cirium’s Diio Mi airline planning tool indicates that in June, Norse Atlantic plans 69 weekly departures from Europe to the United States. This marks a decrease from June 2024 when there were 73 weekly departures including routes to Bangkok. Three routes have been removed: Oslo to Bangkok, Los Angeles, and Miami.
New routes added for the summer season include Rome to Los Angeles and Athens to Los Angeles. Out of its planned routes in June, only one route will not face competition: Athens to Los Angeles. Other routes such as Berlin to New York and Oslo to New York will compete with major airlines like Delta Air Lines and SAS.
