Norwegian - First Entry into Canada

Norwegian Air Shuttle has announced it will begin expanding its overseas and long-haul operations to Canada. From March 2019, the cities of Hamilton and Montreal in Canada will be the newest recipient of its ultra-low-cost flights to Europe and the French Caribbean.

The airline currently flies to the islands on a seasonal basis from both New York’s JFK Airport and Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood Airport, both major bases for Norwegian Long Haul’s Boeing 787 Dreamliner operations.

The airline, currently connects the secondary cities in the Northeastern United States to cities throughout Western Europe using new Boeing 737 MAX 8 aircraft and will now connect Hamilton and Dublin, the airline’s most popular European destination, with year-round daily service. It will become the second longest route for NAI coming in at 3,312 nautical miles following Newburgh-Bergen at 3,456 nautical miles, when the route begins on March 31

The announcement comes at a time when Hamilton’s John C. Munro International Airport,  is growing in popularity among ultra-low-cost airlines, including Flair Airlines and WestJet’s Swoop. The airport is a popular alternative to Toronto Pearson International Airport due to its lower operating costs and ease of access.

Norwegian prefers secondary airports to save on costs, as it does with Newburgh and Providence which serve the New York and Boston markets, respectively. While, historically, Canadians travel across the border to save money on flights to the U.S., the new transatlantic flights might have the reverse effect as the airport is also close enough to the Buffalo/Niagara Falls area to serve Western New Yorkers that are devoid of low-cost service to Europe.

Norwegian Air Shuttle will also operate between Montreal, the largest city in Quebec, and the French Caribbean islands of Guadeloupe and Martinique with its intra-European Boeing 737-800 aircraft beginning in October. Montreal, a French Canadian stronghold, will be the first Canadian destination for the new service and will be the third airline, along with Air Canada Rouge and Air Transat, to provide a non-stop link between Montreal and the French Caribbean.

Norwegian will serve the cities of Fort-de-France and Point-a-Pitre on the islands of Martinique and Guadeloupe, respectively.

From 28th October - Service to Point-a-Pitre, operating on Monday, Wednesday and Fridays,

From 1st November - Service to Fort-de-France, operating seasonally on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturdays.

From 1st November, the airline also announced the opening of new flights between the French Caribbean and Cayenne, French Guiana, another French overseas department and region of France in South America. With this new flight launch, passengers from New York, Floridia and Québéc will have 1-stop low-cost access to French Guiana.

Norwegian has largely ignored Canada, however its rivals, have embraced Canada, with WOW air serving Toronto and Montreal and Primera Air serving London with plans to serve Paris starting June 22. Plans were announced earlier in the year for Norwegian to serve Canada this summer but were put on hold with the airline citing delivery delays on its MAX aircraft.

According to Primera Air, Canadians haven’t been as receptive to ultra-low-cost airlines as Americans have, which might be the reason that Norwegian hasn’t yet served the Great White North, a country with deep links to Europe, with as much tenacity as it has in the United States. Norwegian has not yet stated whether it will serve any Canadian cities with the Boeing 787 Dreamliner as it does in the United States.

Bjørn Kjos, CEO of Norwegian, said in a press release: "I’m delighted to build upon our popular USA flights and give leisure and business customers more affordable access to Singapore and the Asia-Pacific like never before.

"The 787 Dreamliner has the range to allow us to expand our long-haul services to other parts of the world while keeping fares affordable for all.

"This is just the start of Norwegian’s UK expansion into new markets as we will continue connecting destinations where fares have been too high for too long."

1st September 2017
