Norwegian to launch more Scandinavia flights from Manchester
Low-cost airline Norwegian is to launch flights from Manchester to Bergan, the gateway to the Norwegian fjords.
Starting on October 28, the twice weekly service will operate on Mondays and Fridays.
Manchester Airport aviation director Julian Carr said: "It’s great to see Norwegian increase its destination choice from Manchester Airport to include Bergen. I am sure this route will prove incredibly popular with the 22 million passengers in our vast catchment area by giving more accessibility to this Scandinavian city."
Norwegian already operates three non-stop routes to Scandinavia from Manchester with three weekly flights to Oslo, two weekly flights to Stavanger and two weekly flights to Stockholm.
Norwegian began operating from Manchester Airport in 2011 and all flights are served by 186-seat Boeing 737-800 aircraft, offering all passengers free onboard wifi and live TV.
