Norwegian Air Shuttle ASA has placed orders with Boeing Commercial Airplanes and Airbus S.A.S. comprising a total of 372 aircraft whereof 222 are on firm order.
The firm orders are for 22 Boeing 737-800, 100 Boeing 737 MAX8 and 100 Airbus A320neo. The agreements also include purchase rights for an additional 100 Boeing 737 MAX8 and 50 Airbus A320neo. The firm orders have an aggregated value at list price of approximately NOK 127 billion.
Norwegian will be the European launch customer for the new Boeing 737 MAX8. The aircraft is the successor of the 737-800 featuring an all-new engine configuration which combined with airframe improvements will give a 10 – 12 % reduction in fuel burn over its predecessor. The existing 737-800 is currently the most efficient single-aisle aircraft and is the backbone of Norwegian’s operation.
Norwegian will take delivery of the new Airbus A320neo for future business and growth opportunities. The aircraft is the successor of the existing Airbus A320 featuring an all-new engine configuration which combined with airframe improvements will reduce fuel burn by 15 – 17 % compared to the existing A320.
Today’s order will consolidate Norwegian’s position as one of the most competitive and cost efficient airlines in Europe. The order is designed to replace the existing fleet and to secure the best available capacity for growth. The order is in line with Norwegian’s established strategy of continuously striving for the lowest cost in the company’s markets which include operating the most fuel and cost efficient aircraft.
The delivery of aircraft starts in 2016. The aircraft purchase is supported by the Export-Import Bank of the United States (Ex-Im) and European Export Credit Agencies.
Norwegian will host a press and analyst briefing at 10 a.m. CET at Felix Conference Center at Aker Brygge in Oslo.
Please see the enclosed aircraft fact sheet and press release.

Jeg er også overrasket:
1- av størrelsen på ordren
2- å se A320 Neo i bestillingen. DY må rett og slett ha fått en uslåelig pris!
Jeg la også merke til det. Hvor stor blir da den flåten Norwegian har til en hver tid?

"Pyramidespill" var første tanke som slo meg - men OK - dette blir iallefall spennende. Kjos & Co vet å utnytte muligheter - det er jo som regel alltid gode priser å hente når verdensøkonomien er inne i eller nær resesjonsmodus. Og når offentlige finansieringsorganer vil redde industrien fra konkurs og kaos så er det nok veldig gode avtaler å hente der også.
Tolker meldingen dit hen at Norwegian på denne måten har sikret seg en arvtager til dagens Boeing 737-800-fly og at deres strategiske grep dermed blir å bytte ut fly relativt raskt, slik at de kan holde kostnadene nede ved å ha de beste og mest drivstoffgjerrige flyene.
I tillegg er det jo et stort rom for ekspansjon i en slik ordre - og det må nødvendigvis også innebære nye baser utenfor Norden.

Her er hele pressemeldingen til Boeing:

De skal leies ut eller selges står det i samme avsnitt.
Det kommer jo an på leveringstakten her, men nesten samtlige av dagens Norwegian-maskiner er 7-8 år gamle når leveringen av de nye flyene starter. Så veldig stor rom for vekst blir det vel ikke.. i hvertfall ikke de nærmeste 8-10 årene slik jeg kan forstå det.
