Expanding Norwegian Airlines coy on Cork to New York route

Norwegian Airlines is expanding its transatlantic flights out of Dublin and Shannon but said it has not made a decision yet on the viability of a Cork-New York route.

Europe’s third largest low-cost airline, which launched transatlantic flights from Ireland seven months ago, will today announce plans to increase from one to two the number of daily flights from Dublin to New York’s Stewart Airport from April 26, with one-way fares from €121.

The new early-morning service will depart Dublin at 8.10am and land in the US at 10.30am local time.
