In February, Norwegian had 1,294,243 passengers, while Widerøe had 288,304
passengers, totalling 1,582,547 for the group. The capacity increased by 14
percent for Norwegian, while Widerøe had a capacity comparable to February
2024. Both airlines had good operational performance and punctuality in
February.

“It is encouraging that we maintained a solid load factor of almost 85 percent
while significantly increasing capacity compared to last year. In addition, both
Norwegian and Widerøe have had a marked improvement in punctuality, which is
essential for our customers,” said Geir Karlsen, CEO of Norwegian.

Norwegian’s capacity (ASK) in February was 2,219 million seat kilometres, up 14
percent from last year. Actual passenger traffic (RPK) for Norwegian was 1,881
million seat kilometres, up 12 percent, while the load factor was 84.8 percent,
down 1.2 percentage points from the same period last year. Norwegian operated an
average of 74 aircraft during February.

Widerøe had a stable capacity (ASK) in February with 149 million seat
kilometres, down 0.5 percent from last year. The actual passenger traffic (RPK)
for Widerøe was 104 million seat kilometres, while the load factor was 70.1
percent, up 2.9 percentage points.

On operational performance, both airlines have delivered high punctuality after
some winter months with challenging weather. Norwegian’s and Widerøe’s
punctuality, defined as the share of flights departing within 15 minutes of
scheduled time, was 84.7 percent and 82.6 percent respectively. Regularity,
measured by the share of scheduled flights taking place, was 99.5 percent for
Norwegian and 96.0 percent for Widerøe.

Ramping up for a busy summer season

With Easter and spring around the corner, Norwegian and Widerøe are now in the
process of ramping up for the busy summer season. The summer programme begins at
the end of March, and both airlines are seeing good booking momentum for the
peak season.

“We are ready for the fast-approaching summer season and have received three
brand new aircraft from Boeing so far this year. The Easter holiday period is in
high demand, and those looking to travel for the holidays should book now. May
is also filling up well with several public holidays, and the booking trend we
see for the summer peak season is promising,” said Geir Karlsen.
