Norwegian Air to set up Argentine arm with 10 jets by year's end
Norwegian Air Shuttle will establish a unit in Argentina with 10 Boeing 737 narrow-body jets by the end of this year, CE Bjorn Kjos said. The carrier has applied for an air-operating certificate from authorities in the South American country and is now seeking rights to serve domestic routes there, Kjos said. The network would link up with planned flights to Buenos Aires from cities such as London, Paris, Barcelona, Oslo, Copenhagen and Stockholm using Boeing 787 wide-bodies. Norwegian Air formed an operating company at the beginning of 2017 to found a network in Argentina after earlier extending its discount model from European short-haul flights into North Atlantic operations. It has also been considering options for a second base in Asia with services from London and Paris to complement its Bangkok hub. <br/>
