Wizz Air to launch domestic Norwegian services
Wizz Air plans to establish a base at Oslo Gardermoen airport and operate domestic Norwegian services to Bergen, Tromso and Trondheim from early November. The move will add 1.5m seats to the market annually, with the carrier basing two aircraft in Oslo and positioning crew in the city. Wizz says the move will enable it to “tap into over-charged oligopoly markets”. All three routes are currently served by both Norwegian and SAS, while Bergen and Trondheim are also served by Wideroe. Wizz will operate four flights a day on the Bergen and Trondheim routes and twice-daily between Oslo and Tromso. “Our low-fare and high-frequency services between Norway’s capital and prominent regions will give our passengers a true alternative,” states CE Jozsef Varadi.<br/>
