Norse Atlantic Airways launches from London Gatwick under its UK AOC, releases its winter 2023/2024 schedule

  • Initial winter 2023 flights out for sale – New York to London and Paris, and London to Orlando, Los Angeles, Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood, Washington Dulles, and Boston are now available to book until March 2024
  • Inaugural flights between Paris and New York JFK took off on March 26, 2023 with daily flights between the two popular destinations now available through to March 2024.
  • First UK AOC flight operated on March 26, 2023 between London and New York JFK – paving the way for Norse Atlantic to become the largest operator from London Gatwick to the US this summer with seven destinations on sale now.

Norse Atlantic Airways has released the initial wave of winter 2023 flights available for sale including services between London to New York JFK, Orlando, Los Angeles, Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood, Washington Dulles and Boston, and Paris to New York JFK.

The airline additionally marked a double celebration on March 26, 2023 with the inaugural flights between Paris and New York JFK and the first London to New York JFK flight operated by the UK AOC. As a consequence of the operational launch of the UK AOC the company took the decision to discontinue the London to Oslo route following low overall demand and poor load factor performance. 

“We are very pleased with the continued momentum of forward bookings across our network following the launch of our full summer schedule in February which saw multiple sales records broken on consecutive days. With a sustained focus on ancillary choice throughout the customer journey and by offering a consistent approach combined with greater passenger numbers we are looking forward to a successful summer ahead,” said Bjorn Tore Larsen, CEO Norse Atlantic Airways. 

During March, Norse Atlantic Airways recorded an aggregate load factor for the month of 60 percent, including charter operations, up from 50 percent the previous month.

Norse Atlantic Airways operated a total 223 flights. 73 percent of operated flights arrived within 15 minutes of the scheduled arrival time, compared to 80 per cent the prior month. Norse Atlantic carried 42,143 passengers in March.
