04 Apr 2025 08:00 CEST

In March, Norwegian had 1,587,550 passengers, while Widerøe had 328,385
passengers, totalling 1,915,935 for the group. The capacity increased by 13
percent for Norwegian, while Widerøe had a 9 percent increase in capacity
compared to March 2024. Norwegian achieved a strong operational performance and
high punctuality in March.

“I am pleased that we are continuing the strong momentum with our operational
performance in Norwegian, something that is critical as we start our summer
programme. March is the last month of the low season, and we look forward to a
busy Easter travel period,” said Geir Karlsen, CEO of Norwegian.

Norwegian’s capacity (ASK) in March was 2,770 million seat kilometres, up 13
percent from last year. Actual passenger traffic (RPK) for Norwegian was 2,245
million seat kilometres, up 8 percent. The load factor was 81.1 percent, down
3,9 percentage points from the same period last year. The reduction is mainly
caused by the 2024 Easter holidays falling in March, as well as a significant
capacity increase. Norwegian operated an average of 77 aircraft during March.

Widerøe’s capacity (ASK) in March was 168 million seat kilometres, up 9 percent
from last year. The actual passenger traffic (RPK) for Widerøe was 119 million
seat kilometres, while the load factor was 70.7 percent, up 0.3 percentage
points.

Norwegian and Widerøe’s punctuality, defined as share of flights departing
within 15 minutes of scheduled time, was 88.1 percent and 80.7 percent
respectively. Regularity, measured by the share of scheduled flights taking
place, was 99.4 percent for Norwegian and 95.5 percent for Widerøe.

Start of the summer programme

The beginning of April marks the start of Norwegian’s summer programme. The
summer 2025programme includes 350 routes, with 19 new destinations compared to
last year.

“Our summer programme swings into action this week, featuring 129 exciting
destinations across Europe and beyond. Initial bookings for summer travel are
strong, and we are looking forward to flying all our customers to their
destinations. We advise any customers with set holiday dates to book early,”
said Geir Karlsen.

During March, Norwegian concluded the deal on the purchase of ten previously
leased Boeing 737-800 aircraft which will support the airline’s long-term growth
and flexibility.
