“We are grateful for all the support we’ve received in our build-up phase, including from authorities, union partners, travel and tourism organizations and future customers. We are on track to launch ticket sales in late March and ready for our first flight in the second quarter. We look forward to welcoming travelers on both sides of the Atlantic on board our comfortable and more environmentally friendly Dreamliners,” said CEO and Founder Bjørn Tore Larsen of Norse Atlantic Airways. 

“We are building a high-performance culture and creating an environment where we value diversity, and all colleagues feel a sense of belonging. Our unique Team Norse culture will be our competitive advantage,” Larsen said.
