  • Today we're flying a relatively new airline called Norse Atlantic. Norse were founded in 2021 after Norwegian Airlines stopped flying long haul aircraft to focus on their short haul flights around Europe. Before this, Norwegian Airlines had a fleet of 737's and 787's, however they retired their 787's when stopping these long haul services. From these corporate ashes, came Norse Atlantic, who essentially carried on Norwegians long haul services, but under a different name. In fact, most of the 787's that Norse operate, started off as Norwegian Airlines aircraft.
    Just like Norwegian Airlines, while Norse are a Norwegian company, they also have a British subsidiary called Norse Atlantic UK, which allows the airline to operate a base at London Gatwick. They fly from London Gatwick to many destinations such as Los Angeles, Miami, NewYork, Orlando, Washington, Barbados and Montego Bay.

    Unfortunately, Norse Atlantic Airways has come to a stop for flying to Washington DC from London Gatwick because they didn't have demand from DC area Travellers and are willing to get more network expansion like London LGW towards New York JFK doubling more weekly flights and launching flights to Las Vegas and Athens toward New York as well which Norse decided to focus on more other routes between the U.S. and Europe next summer. so it won't come back.

      They are currently still scheduled, but are very rare. They are due to fly into Dulles again on April 7th. After that however, it's hard to tell.

    I flew to gatwick and back And To me any flight is good. The hot food on the plane was good But it was $20 a person. But its definitely better than spirit where i experienced a 9 hour delay.

    Norse CEO is the former CEO of Norwegian 😊 Bjorne Tore Larsen, nice bloke.
    What Norse had said before they started out, was to start small and then expand. Norwegian moved too quickly and sadly, ended up packing up their long haul routes.
    It will be nice to see where else from LGW they will fly 💪🏾👍🏾.
    Great stuff Norse… now can you put flights into the GDS!😂

  • @pinchy08
    @pinchy08 Před 6 měsíci

    For long haul flights (I hope to do soon) I prefer First or Business Class. However some US airlines have what are known as Economy Plus seats. That means economy seats with more leg room. And more leg room I need for a domestic or soon a Trans Atlantic flight mainly aiming for Portugal. Because my family is Portuguese. I also don’t like being seated towards the back of the aircraft as I’ve experienced lots of turbulence that only so far once made me puke. That happened on a US Airways flight from Washington Reagan to Tampa. But I don’t blame the seating accommodations. Nor do I blame the turbulence. The blame was on some weird tasting breadsticks I ate while slowly boarding the plane. I’ll never make that mistake again. Still even long before that on Southwest Airlines flights, I was always in back because I was always assigned B group. Even though I hardly had anything to eat, when landing either in Orlando or Providence, all that turbulence made me want to puke. Felt so much nausea. Landing is tough though.

    • @Aviation18
      @Aviation18  Před 6 měsíci +2

      I think everyone would prefer First and Business but unfortunately it costs a lot more. For cheap fares, Norse are definitely the way to go

    • @pinchy08
      @pinchy08 Před 6 měsíci

      Norse does offer premium seating. I can’t tell if it’s like Business or First Class? However definitely not at a cheap price. The most luxurious classes are always pricey.

    No its NOT worth it
    Some of you may have been lucky. For me...Never Again with Norse!!!!
    JFK via London Gatwick:
    -When you get to the JFK Norse Airways counter they make you fit your bag in a small container and it barely fits because of
    your suitcase wheels. Sorry that will cost you $140 now. If you break the wheels of the suitcase then it fits. What a scam they running.
    -Each Suitcase costs $140 if you check it in under the plane.
    -Carry On is $85
    -Charging port is hidden under seat, and the power cuts off every 25 min
    -You can't fit a medium size laptop on your folding table, the seat is not stretch out enough, a tablet is preferred. Bad Boeing 787 design.
    -They won't even come up to your seat and ask you if you want something to drink
    without paying for it first on the seat screen.
    -You have to pre-pay for your seats
    -They finally gave us water in a cup and tasted like Chlorine, nasty taste.
