MP_MFC Posted May 24, 2018 Posted May 24, 2018 Booked some flights with Norwegian and just wondering what people's experience of them are? I know they say the 787 have wifi etc but I assume the 737 from Edinburgh don't?
The_Kincardine Posted May 24, 2018 Posted May 24, 2018 I never use wifi on flights so can't comment on that but Norwegian are the best of the budget airlines. I've used them quite a few times between Gatwick and Stockholm and Stavanger. Punctual, reliable and the cabin staff are polite and helpful. Look out for the elk sausage as a snack.
Melanius Mullarkey Posted May 24, 2018 Posted May 24, 2018 They’re always flying plane loads of pishy pensioners over my hoose on route to Tenerife.

BFTD Posted May 24, 2018 Posted May 24, 2018 Just tried Elk for the first time earlier this year. Would recommend. Never tried Norwegians, but I'm sure they're lovely too.

LondonHMFC Posted May 25, 2018 Posted May 25, 2018 Went to LA with them last year on the dreamliner (f**k knows the actual number) , really good journey. Had no problems at all. Sent me an email yesterday with just over £300 return flights to Singapore that we might do.

Only WiFi once. It's fine though no hassles hasn't crashed and cheap. Had a whole row to myself twice my gf once.
Replays Posted May 26, 2018 Posted May 26, 2018 Flew from Gatwick to LA in October. It was my first long-hail flight and I had no complaints whatsoever. I had no Wifi but there was a good in-flight entertainment system.
Highland Capital Posted May 27, 2018 Posted May 27, 2018 I flew from Edinburgh to Providence, RI last year and I thought Norwegian were fine. They are a budget airline (and some of the flights to America are absolute steals!) but I would say they're similar to how EasyJet would be if they did long haul. I had free wifi on my flight. It wasn't super fast, but reasonable enough. Are you visiting Providence at all by the way? A nice city.

Will be staying in Warwick, been to Providence before, it's a lovely state...Newport is something to see to believe.
Highland Capital Posted May 27, 2018 Posted May 27, 2018 Newport is stunning. Went to the Target store in Warwick. There were some right hicks about.
