In the hours of need, Norwegian won a lot at this year´s Freddie Awards. SAS did not win anything.

“For the 30th year, we’re thrilled to announce the winners of this years Freddie Awards. Please join us in congratulating the programs and winners you voted for.  And thanks again for being one of the travelers who cast more than 3.6. million ballots this year—a year of much distraction in travel.
