Norwegian suspends MAX route sales, shuffles Ireland flights
Norwegian Air Shuttle has temporarily halted ticket sales for routes normally serviced by the Boeing 737 MAX to ensure the LCC can “meet customer expectations” in its latest update since the aircraft type’s grounding. Norwegian, which has a fleet of 18 MAXs, has been rerouting, rebooking or refunding passengers, as well as combining flights and reallocating aircraft, to cope with the capacity shortfall. In a March 25 update on its Ireland-US operations and the new flight from Dublin Airport to Hamilton, Toronto, Norwegian said it would temporarily operate additional services from Dublin using a 737-800 from March 31. The airline had previously said it was temporarily deploying a 787-9 to operate daily flights between Dublin and New York Stewart, combining Dublin to New York and Providence flights with a bus transfer service. <br/>
