Norwegian Air Shuttle ASA (OSE: NAS), trading as Norwegian, is the second-largest airline in Scandinavia and the third-largest low-cost carrier in Europe. In 2010, it transported 13.0 million people on 238 routes to 95 destinations in 27 countries, spanning Europe and to North Africa and the Middle East. As of January 2011, Norwegian operates a total fleet of 53 aircraft; 23 Boeing 737-300s and 30 Boeing 737-800s. The company has firm orders for an additional 54 further 737-800s, the last due for delivery in 2016. The airline has bases at Oslo Airport, Copenhagen, Stockholm-Arlanda, Helsinki-Vantaa, Bergen, Trondheim and Stavanger. It offers a high-frequency domestic flight schedule within Scandinavia and to typical business destinations such as London and Helsinki, combined with a low-frequency service to international destinations from its focus cities.

Norwegian has announced the start-up of long-haul operations in 2012 using Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner aircraft. The company has firm orders for two Dreamliners, but is negotiating for another 4-6 aircraft and targeting a fleet of 10-15 Dreamliners in the medium term. The launch routes will be from the Scandinavian capitals to New York and Bangkok.

Norwegian was founded in 1993 as a regional airline taking over routes in Western Norway after the bankruptcy of Busy Bee. Until 2002, it operated Fokker 50 aircraft on wet lease for Braathens. Following the merger of the two domestic incumbents Braathens and Scandinavian Airlines, Norwegian took the opportunity to establish a domestic low-cost carrier. It has since expanded quickly, establishing itself in Warsaw and purchasing Swedish airline FlyNordic in 2007, and entering the Copenhagen market in 2008. The same year it saw the delivery of its first brand new Boeing 737-800.

Operations

Boeing 737-8Q8 LN-NOL was the 6000th 737 to be built

Norwegian is a low-cost airline with elements of a network company. The company is the second largest airline in Scandinavia, and has a route portfolio that stretches across Europe into North Africa and the Middle East. The airline currently operates 238 routes to 95 destinations.

With competitive prices and customer friendly solutions and service, the company has experienced significant growth over the previous years. In 2009 10.8 million passengers travelled with the airline. The company’s turnover was in excess of NOK 7.3 billion. It employees about 1,600 people.[1] The company is headed by chief executive officer and largest owner Bjørn Kjos and the board is chaired by Bjørn H. Kise.[2] The airline is a member of European Low Fares Airline Association and listed on the Oslo Stock Exchange.

The parent company Norwegian Air Shuttle ASA operates the airlines services in Norway and Denmark. Services in Sweden are operated by subsidiary Norwegian Air Shuttle Sweden AB and in Poland by Norwegian Air Shuttle Polska Sp.zo.o. Norwegian Air Shuttle also hold 100% of the telephone company Call Norwegian, 99.9% of NAS Asset Management, 100% of NAS Asset Management (which owns the remaining 0.1% of NAS Asset Management) and 20% of Bank Norwegian.[3] The group holds one Norwegian air operator's certificate (AOC) (ICAO airline designator NAX). The Group also held one Swedish AOC (ICAO airline designator NDC) up until 2009, but the double AOC operation was discontinued for efficiency purposes.[4] The main technical base is at Stavanger, although heavy maintenance (C/D checks) and engine maintenance are put out on tender.[citation needed] Norwegian purchases all aircraft ground handling from third parties, in Norway, these are Røros Flyservice and Norport Handling.[citation needed]

Norwegian operates aircraft with all-economy class seating. Surcharge are taken for on-board food and drinks, check-in baggage, payment by credit card and other non-core services.[5] The airlines runs two frequent flyer programs: Norwegian Reward is for travelers, who earn cash point based on a percent of cash paid for tickets and the ticket class. Corporate Reward allows companies to redeem cash points on a similar basis. By law, frequent flyer points cannot be collected on domestic flights in Norway.[6]

Head office

The company's head office is located in Diamanten, a building in Fornebu, Bærum outside Oslo.[7] Previously the airline had its head office inside another building in Fornebu.[8] In February 2010, Norwegian Air Shuttle bought Diamanten, the former Braathens and later SAS Norway head office.[7]

History

The routes operated on behalf of Braathens in Western Norway during the 1990s

Regional airline

Norwegian Air Shuttle (NAS) was founded on 22 January 1993 to take over the regional airline services produced by Busy Bee for Braathens in Western Norway. Busy Bee, founded in 1966, was a subsidiary of Braathens that operated a fleet of Fokker 50 aircraft for charter. This included the network of regional services between cities on the West Coast operated on wet lease for the mother company. Following the bankruptcy, NAS took over three leased Fokker 50 aircraft, and started operating from Bergen Airport, Flesland to Haugesund Airport, Karmøy, as well as from Bergen to Molde Airport, Årø or Kristiansund Airport, Kvernberget and onwards to Trondheim Airport, Værnes. The company was established and owned by former Busy Bee employees and initially had a work force of fifty.[9][10] It was based in Bergen, bus later established a technical base in Stavanger.[11]

From 1 April 1994, the airline also began service from Bergen to Ålesund Airport, Vigra.[12] In 1995, the company received its fourth Fokker 50s, and had a revenue of NOK 86.6 million and a profit of NOK 2.9 million. It flew 50 daily services.[13] In 1996, the airline bid for the public service obligation (PSO) rotues along the West Coast in cooperation with Tyrolean Airways, but lost the tender to the incumbent Widerøe.[14] NAS wanted NOK 267 million for the routes, while Widerøe only bid NOK 113 million.[15]

By 1999, the company had six Fokker 50s and flew 500,000 passengeres on 20,000 flights.[11][16] The company had a revenue of NOK 172 million and a profit of NOK 13 million. NAS submitted a new bid for the PSO routes in 1999, but did not win any.[17] On 2 June 2000, NAS bought the helicopter operator Lufttransport from Helikopter Service.[16] In 2000, the NAS fleet was expanded to seven Fokker 50s. The same year, Braathens threatened to terminate their agreements with NAS from 2003, and purchase smaller aircraft themselves for the routes and others.[11] From 2 January 2001, several Braathens routes were terminated, including the NAS-operated services from Kristiansund to Trondheim and Molde. The routes from Bergen to Haugesund were reduced from five to three round trips, and the Bergen–Molde–Trondheim route was reduced from four to three.[18] The cuts forced the airline to retire on of its aircraft.[19]

In October 2001, NAS failed in bidding for the PSO route from Bodø to Røst.[20] On 2 November, NAS bought the Swedish helicopter operator Ostermann.[21] On 7 January 2002, NAS took over the responsibility for the route from Stavanger to Newcastle, flying two round trips per day. This was the first route where the airline did not wet lease the aircraft to Braathens, but instead operated the flights on their own risk. On the same day, Widerøe started a single round trip on the route.[22]

After Braathens was bought by Scandinavian Airlines System (SAS) in November 2001, NAS attempted to negotiate a deal where they took over the operations on a permanent basis for their own risk. This was rejected by SAS, who wanted their subsidiary SAS Commuter or Widerøe to take over. NAS had a 18-month cancellation time on their arrangement.[23]

Low-cost carrier

Following the decision of SAS and Braathens to merge, NAS announced in April 2002 that it was planning to start domestic scheduled services as a low-cost carrier on the most trafficked routes. The company stated that this was conditional that the authorities banned frequent flyer programs and hindered SAS from cross-subsidizing routes to underbid Norwegian on those routes.[24]

From 1 September 2002, the airline re-branded as Norwegian.[25]

The airline has opened a second hub, at Warsaw Frederic Chopin Airport in Poland, flying to Central European destinations. There are two Boeing 737 operating from Warsaw.[26] Norwegian Air Shuttle ASA announced 24 April 2007 that they had bought 100% of the Swedish low-cost airline FlyNordic; becoming the largest low-cost airline in Scandinavia. As part of the deal with the former owner, Finnair got a 5% stake in Norwegian.[27]

On 23 August 2007, Norwegian announced that it would initiate scheduled operations from 18 February 2008 at the new Moss Airport, Rygge south of Oslo,[28] with the military airport also opening for commercial traffic and located at about the same distance from Oslo as Gardermoen. Norwegian's initial 14 scheduled routes from Rygge were Alicante, Athens, Barcelona, Belgrade, Bergen, Budapest, Istanbul, London, Málaga, Marrakech, Palanga/Klaipeda, Szczecin, Valencia and Warsaw. Norwegian claims flights from Rygge will generally be cheaper than those from Gardermoen.[29] In February 2008 Norwegian announced their first destination outside Europe, non-stop to Dubai from Oslo-Gardermoen and Stockholm-Arlanda.

After the bankruptcy of competitor Sterling Airlines, Norwegian announced that they would open a new hub at Copenhagen Airport and service the most profitable routes. Flights to Aalborg and Stockholm as well as additional flights to Oslo would start immediately, with flights to London, Amsterdam and Rome to follow "shortly after".

On 30 August 2007, Norwegian ordered 42 new Boeing 737-800 aircraft, with an option for 42 more, an order worth US$ 3.1 billion.[30] The planes will enter the fleet between 2008 and 2014, approximately 10 each year. The first 737-800 arrived at Oslo Airport, Gardermoen, Norway, on 26 January 2008. It was registered LN-NOB, and has a tail picture of the Norwegian composer and pianist Edvard Grieg. Norwegian Air Shuttle ordered winglets on the new aircraft, and it was said the aircraft would be stationed at Moss Airport, though most of its flights operate out of Oslo. The plane made its first scheduled flight on 1 February. LN-NOC, which was the second 737-800 that was entering the fleet, was bought used from Air Europa. A milestone was achieved on April 17, 2009, when Norwegian received LN-NOL, the 6000th 737 ever built.[31]

In April 2010, Norwegian started flights from Oslo-Gardermoen and Stockholm to Helsinki-Vantaa Airport. During early 2011 Norwegian will station three aircraft stationed there and will introduce domestic flights to Oulu Airport and Rovaniemi Airport on 31 March 2011. Starting in May, additional flights will being to nine additional international destinations.[32][33]

In 2009, stated that they intended to start flights from Oslo to New York and Bangkok, which would require the purchase of new intercontinental aircraft. In 2010, Norwegian stated that they were considering up to 15 intercontinental destinations from Scandinavia, and would also consider services to South America and Africa.[34] On 8 November 2010, Norwegian announced that they had signed and to lease two new Boeing 787 Dreamliners from International Lease Finance Corporation, with delivery in 2012. The company stated that they were negotiating the purchase of additional aircraft, and that they were hoping to order a total of seven Dreamliners.[35]

The Boeing 737-800 is among the most environmentally friendly aircraft available, reducing per seat CO2 emissions by 23 % compared to the 737-300 and by as much as 33 % compared to the MD80. The new aircraft also improve operational reliability and on-time performance as well as reduce maintenance and other technical costs. The -300 have CFM 56-3C1, giving a range of 2,000 nautical miles (3,700 km; 2,300 mi). The aircraft seat 148 passengers and four are retrofitted with winglets and more spacious Recaro seats.[46]

The -800 are equipped with winglets and CFM 56-7B26 engines. Except for the first seven aircraft, all have tech-insert technology to reduce fuel consumption. All -800s have a longer range than the -300, allowing 2,400 nautical miles (4,400 km; 2,800 mi). they are the only craft used to the Middle East, Africa and the Canary Islands; otherwise both types are used throughout the network, plus all domestic services in Sweden. The initial delivery of 12 -800 had 189 seats, but the remaining will be provided with 186 seats to increase passenger legroom; they will also be equipped with Dreamliner mood lighting and Recaro seats.[46] In 2010, Norwegian Air Shuttle will receive 13 new Boeing -800. For 2011, 2012, 2013, and 2014 the corresponding figures are 14, 10, 10, and 5, respectively.[citation needed]

The aircraft livery is white with a red nose. Some of the aircraft have a portrait of a notable Norwegian, Swede or Dane on the tail.[47] Norwegian has also operated a single aircraft in the an advertisement livery for the insurance company Silver.[48]
