Norwegian launches new routes to Greece from Finland, Norway and Sweden

Norwegian launches six seasonal routes over two days; 24-25 June. Four of the routes are to Greece, one to Bulgaria and one is a Norwegian domestic service – from the country capital Oslo (OSL) in the south to Andenes (ANX) on the island of Andøya in northern Norway. The only route to face direct, scheduled competition, between Helsinki (HEL) and Rhodes (RHO), was also operated once a week by Air Finland; however, the Finnish leisure carrier filed for bankruptcy yesterday, 26 June, and has suspended all operations.
