Norwegian Launch Low-Cost Flights From London to Seattle and Denver This Autumn

Norwegian airlines are continuing their expansion of transatlantic services from the UK by adding its first flights to the western side of the US this autumn.

Its new year-round services from London Gatwick to Seattle (the only direct service from Gatwick) and Denver start from mid-September 2017 with fares from £199 each way.

Norwegian has built a reputation on providing a modern, high quality, friendly and efficient service at lower prices than traditional carriers and has rapidly grown its business in the UK carrying more than 5 million Brits last year.  It is now also Europe’s third biggest ‘low cost carrier.’

More than 125,000 seats are available on Norwegian’s first route to America’s Pacific Northwest and the only route from Gatwick to Denver.

Four weekly flights from 17^th September 2017 from Gatwick to Seattle-Tacoma International Airport will operate on Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Sunday with fares from £199.

A twice-weekly service from Gatwick to Denver will operate from 16 September on Tuesday and Saturday during the summer season and will increase to a three weekly service in the winter with an additional Thursday departure.

Passengers will fly on the state-of-the-art Boeing 787 Dreamliner aircraft, which offers up to 344 seats in two cabins. Passengers can choose from a modern economy cabin with seatback inflight entertainment and a Premium cabin, which offers spacious seating with more than a metre of legroom, complimentary meal service and a generous baggage allowance from £599.90 to Seattle and Denver.

“Our new Seattle and Denver routes reflect the huge consumer demand on both sides of the Atlantic for quality affordable long-haul travel,”

said Thomas Ramdahl, Chief Commercial Officer at Norwegian, who added,

“With our USA flights over 90 per cent full, we are excited to add Seattle to our growing list of US destinations while breaking the monopoly on UK flights to Denver.

Guy Stephenson, Chief Commercial Officer at Gatwick Airport commented,

“Denver repeatedly scores top for quality of life in the US, experiences more sunshine than Miami and is the gateway to the great outdoors including the Rocky Mountains. Seattle too is famous for its coastline and lush evergreen forests with Mt. Rainier in the backdrop.”
