Norwegian Air has cut its premium cabin fares on long- haul flights from Gatwick for this summer and winter 2016-17.


One-way premium fares to


Boston this summer start from £449 and winter fares from £399, down from about £649. New York is available from £499


one-way this summer and Orlando, Fort Lauderdale, Los Angeles and Oakland (San Francisco) from £579. Norwegian will add Las Vegas and Puerto Rico from Gatwick this winter, with one-way premium fares to both available from £499.


All flights are aboard Boeing


787 Dreamliners. Norwegian likens its premium cabin to a pre- flatbed, long-haul business-class experience, with a reclining seat, 46-inch legroom, complimentary

soft drinks and three-course meal, plus two check-in bags, lounge access when available, fast track and priority boarding. Cabins offer either 32 or 35


Premium seats. Norwegian chief commercial


officer Thomas Ramdahl said: “Norwegian’s Premium cabin gives extra travel perks without a premium price tag. It is much more than a premium economy cabin.” Services to Las Vegas commence


on October 31 and those to Puerto Rico resume on November 2. The carrier operates daily from Gatwick to New York and between two and five times a week to the other destinations. Norwegian also offers a fast-


growing rewards scheme offering cash points for each one-way booking, giving money off future flights. Flights are bookable via


GDSs as well as online. norwegian.com
