Delta Air Lines guidance update
18th September 2023
Speaking to The Wall Street Journal, Chief Executive of Norwegian Air Shuttle, Bjorn Kjos, has stated that if the US rejects its application for a U.S. foreign-carrier permit it could buy another airline that already has a permit in place. However, he added that he is confident Norwegian will be granted a foreign carrier permit by the U.S. Transportation Department in upcoming weeks.
A US foreign carrier permit would allow Norwegian to compete on trans-Atlantic routes using its 787 fleet.
