The Planes For The New Norse Atlantic Flight to the US
Norse, as most low cost carriers do, operates a one aircraft type fleet. The Norwegian airline chose the American made Boeing 787-9. All planes feature the same layout with a capacity of 238 passengers in a 2 class configuration:
- 56 Premium Economy Seats in a 2-3-2 layout
- 282 Economy Class Seats in a 3-3-3 layout
All seats are pretty much created equal with no seat in Premium or Standard Economy standing out for extra comfort, except bulkhead rows and emergency exits.
