Norwegian has been showing regular and steady growth


An inspiring place to see.
The land of the midnight sun

‘Furrowed and weather-worn’, says Norway's national anthem. Indeed, if it weren't for the Gulf Stream, no one but polar bears would thrive this far north. But, thanks to the Gulf Stream and the Midnight Sun, it is possible to live in this otherwise uninhabitable land.



Walking the landscape of Norway

But thanks to that and the Midnight Sun, it is possible to live in this otherwise uninhabitable land of extremes. Especially during the dark winter months. It is the four seasons with all the changes they bring that lay the groundwork for all Norwegian life.



Wonderful experience of glacier walking

More than anything else, it is nature that makes Norway such a special place to visit. No matter what time of year you come. Though activities will naturally vary with the season, you'll actually find summer skiing in places like Stryn, Folgefonna and Galdhøgpiggen. Staying in the mountains is a wonderful experience, whether it's a challenge or just peaceful silence you're looking for. There is a vast network of marked hiking trails that you can use for hiking from cabin to cabin, or you can stay in just one place and take different outings from there. And why not visit one of our many national parks? The glaciers and rivers invite the thrill seeker to glacier walking and river rafting. And there are farms throughout the country that receive guests. At some of them you can even participate in farm chores if you like. Whether it's rest you need or physical challenge, memories of your stay in Norway will last a lifetime.
Dependable regular service to Norway

The volume of passengers choosing to travel on the air routes of Norwegian has been showing regular and steady growth on all sectors of its network since they launched their first flights in 2003. Irrespective of whether the passengers are travelling for business or leisure or just visiting friends and relatives, Norwegian has shown they can provide not only a dependable regular service on the routes that they operate but also fare levels that support and encourage passenger growth in these markets.

Norway is a country like no other. Its stunning landscape has been developed over thousands of years - snow capped mountians decend into deep blue fjords and green forests stretch to its long, rugged coastline. Roads thread their way through an enchanting landscape - from Lindesnes in the south to Finmark in the north. And, with four very distinct seasons, you will never get tired of holidays in Norway.

Visitors during winter can take advantage of the numerous world class ski resorts that are dotted around the country and be virtully guaranteed snow. During summer, there are numerous attractions and activities to keep visitors busy - bustling cosmopolitan cities, quiet mountain villages, Michelin Star restaurants and mountain lodges serving traditional Norwegian food - the unspoilt open country of the S·mi people in the north and fjords, salmon fishing and festivals in the south.
