Norwegian - (Nye) IC ruter

Fra Airliners.net forumet:

The presentation of 680 pages from low cost airline Norwegian Air Shuttle that reached the National Civil Aviation Administration (ANAC) weighed more than usual. Inside it contained the largest investment proposal ever made by a company of its kind in the country: the Norwegian company plans to spend US$ 4.3 billion over the next five to eight years.

But not only that. As announced to La Nacion from Spain by Alfons Claver, spokeperson for Norwegian, the presentation made today before the ANAC includes the request for 146 routes, in the domestic, regional and intercontinental markets. "With this we hope to create between 3000 and 3500 direct jobs in the country," said the spokesperson.

According to a source very close to the operation, the Scandinavian firm would be the only one of all the low cost airlines that tries to operate in the Argentinian market that is able to fly to Europe and the United States. "What is missing now is that the ANAC approves it, which I suppose will be in May, and that the government will call the hearing. Those are the remaining requirements for the operation to be completed," the source said.

The plan also includes the operation of 70 aircraft in the country (50 Boeing 737, short range, and 20 Boeing 787, long range). "Norwegian has with what to cover that demand because two years ago it ordered the largest aircraft order in history for a European airline and has on hold 250 Boeing aircraft in production," Claver said.

Of course, not all of these planes will arrive the first year. According to the schedule provided by the company, from the day the operations start, there will be six aircraft in Argentina, all of them short range and by the end of the year we would be looking at about 10 aircraft. Twelve months after the first flight, there will be 15 aircraft (11 short range and 4 long range), and 30 months later there will be 35 (25 short range and 10 long).

Between the fifth and eighth year of operations, the Scandinavian company would already have 70 aircraft (50 short and medium range and 20 long range). "With this we would be able to operate the 146 routes and carry 18.2 million passengers each year to about 90 destinations, distributed in 25 countries," said Claver.

Norwegian flights for November will be able to take off from Gatwick Airport (London) and connect with Buenos Aires, from where the distribution will be done with their home network. "Thus, there will be a domestic airline, Norwegian Air Argentina, which presented the papers, which will be able to fly domestic and international long-haul flights, which makes the network more efficient and solid," the source explained.

"This plan is not limited just to Buenos Aires, but we would have four operational bases: Ezeiza, Aeroparque, Córdoba and Mendoza, and on these bases, the planes and their crews will stay overnight and light maintenance will be done," Claver said.

While the direct jobs generated by the plan are between 3000 and 3500 (between pilots, flight attendants and technicians), the company believes that indirect employment would add between 55,000 to 60,000 jobs. According to Norwegian, the proposal will increase the Argentine GDP per year by 1.5-2% from the current level, depending on GDP growth in the coming years.

The US$4.3 billion that Norwegian plans to invest in the country have a strong case: as explained in the sector, there is a lot of room for growth, without affecting Aerolíneas Argentinas and LATAM. "Some say the current market can double, but I say that with the right measures, it can triple," the source said.

The news for potential passengers are also good, as it is expected that the new local ULCC will offer fares that will be 40% lower than those currently offered by the two main airlines, Aerolineas/Austral and LATAM.


Caramba !

Tenker Kjos må bestille inn flere Boeing 787 om han skal fortsette slik rundt om kring i resten av verden ...
 
Noe som har noen anelse om når Argentina rutene blir presentert? Er det snakk om noen dager eller noen måneder?

Det er nok litt utenfor Norwegian sin kontroll, da det kommer nok an på når de får de rettighetene de trenger
 
Noen som vet hvorfor vi ikke hører noe mer om langrute til Hawaii lenger ? Det var snakk om at Norwegian ville starte opp med det ...

Det var OSL som fortalte at de har vært i samtaler med "flere flyselskaper" angående en direkterute til HNL. Norsk media hev seg over Norwegian, som fortalte at det ikke foreligger planer, men "at vi vurderer hele tiden nye ruter". Ut i fra det konkluderte halve media og halve Norge at Norwegian skulle starte ruta. :lol:
 
Ser da ut som det er endelig at SJU/STX ikke kommer tilbake

Norwegian will not continue its seasonal San Juan, Puerto Rico, service from Europe next winter, Lars Sande, Norwegian’s senior vice president of sales and distribution, told Aviation Daily at the CAPA Americas Aviation Summit last week.

Dette tilsvarte jo omtrent kapasiteten til en 787-8 som nå blir frigjort neste vinter. Hvor havner denne da? Til nå har jo alle annonserte nye ruter vært med -9
 
STX skjønner jeg godt at de bytter ut, men hadde de ikke også STT?

Blir spennende å se om de klarer velge en ny øy i Karibien som jeg enda ikke har besøkt. Casta Rica kunne jeg godt tenkt meg priskonkurranse til.

Nei, de fløy til St.Croix og ikke St.Thomas. Uansett var jo denne fløyet sammen med CPH-SJU som en CPH-SJU-STX routing

Nå skal jo Norwegian begynne å fly til Denver og Seattle fra London. Jeg hadde ikke blitt sjokkert om en eller begge disse destinasjonene også starter fra de nordiske landene.
 
Fjernet som Somone nevner. Kan forklare hvorfor Kjos var på non-Schengen i går? På vei til London for å lansere flere ruter?
 
Her er artikkelen:

Low-cost carrier Norwegian will begin flying long-haul non-stop between Singapore’s Changi Airport and London Gatwick starting September 28 this year. The new route is part of Norwegian’s wider UK growth plans and marks the first long-haul route to take off under its new Norwegian UK subsidiary.

The new service will fly four times weekly – increasing to five times weekly during the northern winter season – operated by a 344-seat, two-class Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner.

“Our transatlantic flights have shown the huge demand for affordable long-haul travel, so we are delighted to expand into new markets and offer our first route to Asia from the UK,” said Norwegian CEO, Bjorn Kjos. “Travel should be affordable for all so adding Singapore to our growing UK network will give passengers even more choice for affordable, quality travel to a range of global destinations.”

The arrival of Norwegian’s new route will see the total number of weekly flights between Singapore and London increase to 50 (during northern winter season). London is Changi Airport’s 14th-busiest route, servicing more than 1.2 million passengers in 2016.

“With changing consumer preferences and an improvement in aircraft technology, low-cost carriers have taken the opportunity to expand into the long-haul market,” said Changi Airport Group CEO, Lee Seow Hiang. “We will continue to work with our airline partners to exploit other such opportunities to grow their operations at Changi.”

Details of the Singapore (SIN)-London Gatwick (LGW) route are as follows (all times local, details of fifth weekly northern winter service to be determined):

Rutenummer DIxxxx, den var "ny", men er vel Norwegian UK?

4x ukentlig fra 28 september, og 5x ukentlig fra vintersesongen i slutten av oktober
 
Rutenummer DIxxxx, den var "ny", men er vel Norwegian UK?

jepp, ''betjent av Norwegian air UK'' står det i margen, virker også som at Norwegian har begynt å skrive hvilket Norwegian-selskap som flyr flygningen, har ikke sett dette før, før for inntil noen uker siden.
 
Norwegian ligger jo på en Yield på 0,40. Jeg har hørt Kjos tidligere sagt at målet for langdistanse er 0,35. Fra London til Singapoore er det omtrent 11000 km. Men en Yield på 0,35 betyr det at det koster NAS kr. 3850,- å fly en passasjer en vei. Prisene ligger stort sett på under 2000 kroner en vei. Det betyr et tap per passasjer på drøyt 1500 kroner. Hvordan kan denne ruten da bli lønnsom?
