Norwegian Long Haul (Norwegian Air Shuttle) (Norwegian.com) (Oslo) today (April 4) launched nonstop Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner service from London (Gatwick) to Orlando. Earlier this week, Norwegian also started the first nonstop flight between Copenhagen and Orlando. Orlando was launched as a long-haul destination by Norwegian last year from Oslo.
According to the airline, “the London Gatwick (LGW) to Orlando (MCO) route will go operate once a week, on Saturdays. To launch more long-haul routes between London Gatwick and the United States is part of Norwegian’s strategy to grow globally and get a stronger foothold internationally. Last summer, Norwegian launched direct flights to New York (JFK), Los Angeles (LAX) to Fort Lauderdale/Hollywood (FLL) from London Gatwick.
Norwegian currently has seven Dreamliner planes that operate long-haul routes between the US and Europe, and between Scandinavia and Asia. In 2018, Norwegian will have a long-haul fleet of 17 Dreamliner aircraft.”
