Norwegian’s traffic figures for September show a continued increase in the number of passengers as demand strengthens across our network. Traditional booking patterns are beginning to return and we are seeing more people planning ahead and booking to travel to our popular city break and winter sun destinations.

In September, Norwegian carried 977 719 passengers, an increase of 206 per cent compared to the same period last year. Compared with September 2020, the total capacity (ASK) has increased by 154 per cent and passenger traffic (RPK) up 248 per cent. Load factor in September was 72.4 per cent, an increase of 20 percentage points compared with last year.

More people are choosing to travel with Norwegian every month due to focused route network, good value fares, modern fuel-efficient aircraft and the on board experience.

Norwegian continues to ramp up operations in line with demand and the company has now reopened bases in Stavanger, Bergen and Trondheim. Norwegian operated an average of 46 aircraft in September, of which 92.1 per cent departed on time.
