In 2023, Norwegian carried over 20 million passengers and maintained a fleet of 87 Boeing 737-800 and 737 MAX 8 aircraft.

Mainly operating the short-runway airports in rural Norway, Widerøe operates several state contract routes (PSO routes) in addition to its own commercial network. In 2023, the airline had 3.3 million passengers and a fleet of 48 aircraft, including 45 Bombardier Dash 8’s and three Embraer E190-E2's.

Seitdem hat die Airline rund sieben Millionen Reisende zwischen Norwegen und Deutschland befördert.     Düsseldorf ist seit dem 27. März 2006 festes Norwegian-Ziel. Wir haben mal tief in unser Archiv gegriffen und das Bild des damaligen Erstfluges rausgesucht. Geflogen wurde damals mit einer B737-300 (LN-KKJ). In diesem Sinne – Gratulerer med jubileet! 🇩🇪✈️🇳🇴 _____________________________________________________________ Norwegian Airlines has been flying to Germany for 20 years: On April 1, 2004 at 7:10 p.m., flight (DY224) took off from Oslo to Berlin with 121 passengers on board.

    In March, Norwegian had 1,544,289 passengers, while Widerøe had 276,413 passengers, totalling 1,820,702 for the group✈️ The load factor for Norwegian increased to 85 percent, up 4 percentage points compared to March last year. Norwegian recorded a strong regularity of 99.6 percent in March, while on-time performance also improved compared to previous months. “We are delighted to publish strong traffic figures yet again, this month got an extra boost thanks to the early Easter holiday. The high regularity we had in March reflects the great work all our colleagues do every day to make sure our customers can trust Norwegian for all their travels. This is especially important over Easter with so many customers having planned their vacation trips, and I am proud to say that we had zero cancellations for all our international flights. We are now looking ahead to the next vacation season and are this week kicking off with a "Spring Sale" campaign. The booking trends for the summer season are beginning to look very good, but we naturally anticipate a weaker April as a result of the Easter holiday coming early this year,” said Geir Karlsen, CEO of Norwegian.
