Low-cost airline Norwegian has revealed plans to open up long-distance flights to three new destinations from Copenhagen Airport within the next year.
From November, the airline will launch direct flights to Ft Lauderdale, Florida in the US for 3,000 kroner, and from February 2014, the airline will begin flying direct routes to New York and Bangkok.
The news is the latest attempt by Norwegian to challenge the SAS-dominated air superiority in Scandinavia, something that Norwegian's CEO, Bjørn Kjos, believes will only aid an industry that has seen its share of struggles in recent years.
A quick price check on Norwegian’s website yielded a ticket price to Ft Lauderdale for as low as 2,768 kroner (US 476.00) in December. According to Politiken, tickets to Florida at that time of year are usually around 4,500 kroner and that is with one or more layovers.
