Norwegian will launch flights from Boston, Baltimore/Washington, DC and New York City to two Caribbean destinations: the Guadeloupe Islands and Martinique.
Only two years after launching its long-haul operation, Norwegian will now be the largest foreign airline at New York’s JFK airport in terms of number of routes.
The airline currently offers 31 direct routes from the US.
Norwegian’s new seasonal service to the French West Indies will launch on December 3rd, 2015, with three flights per week from JFK to the Guadeloupe Islands’ Pointe-à-Pitre International Airport on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.
Norwegian will fly from JFK to Martinique Aimé Césaire International Airport on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays.
“We launched our first long-haul flights to the US two years ago and the response from American travellers has been fantastic.
“It’s great to see that our low fares, friendly service and new, more environmentally friendly aircraft are appreciated.
“It is therefore a pleasure to be able to launch new, exotic routes between the US mainland and the Caribbean islands Guadeloupe and Martinique,” said Norwegian chief executive Bjørn Kjos.
“We will continue to expand in the US, by launching new routes and establishing more US bases.”
The new routes will also give Norwegian’s passengers from Europe a golden opportunity to combine a city break in New York with an exotic Caribbean vacation.
Norwegian already offers direct flights from London and the Scandinavian capitals to the Caribbean islands of Puerto Rico and St Croix, in addition to many other destinations in the US.
