Norwegian 787 Delivery Schedule

Norwegian Air Shuttle has announced the delivery schedule, and entry into service plans, for its new Boeing 787 Dreamliner fleet.

The first aircraft is due to be delivered to the airline’s Oslo base in April 2013, with flights commencing to New York on 30 May.

Flights from Stockholm will begin from May 31, 2013, initially twice weekly on the New York route, but increasing to three times weekly from June 26, 2013.  Its long-haul network from the Swedish capital will expand with the addition of flights to Bangkok on a three times weekly basis from June 20, 2013.

After the delivery of its first Dreamliner, Norwegian confirms that a second aircraft will arrive in June, enabling it to fulfil its proposed schedules to Bangkok (on 1 June 2013)and New York.  A third aircraft will arrive in November and is likely to be used for frequency growth, subject to demand, but the carrier has not ruled out adding additional routes from Scandinavia or even some of its other European bases.  Norwegian will take delivery of an additional four aircraft in 2014 and one in 2015.
