Norwegian had 2.1 million passengers and a load factor of 85.2 percent in
August. Regularity was particularly high with 99.6 percent of all scheduled
flights taking place. During challenging circumstances, such as the high winds
and floods caused by Storm Hans in Southern Norway, as well as the air traffic
troubles in the UK, Norwegian made sure travellers reached their destinations as
smoothly as possible. 

"Our August traffic figures were good. As autumn approaches, we are happy to see
that many travellers continue to go away on holiday to our many popular
destinations, while business travellers have made a comeback after the summer.
Our autumn sales campaign has been well received and the booking momentum for
the months ahead continues to look positive," said Geir Karlsen, CEO of
Norwegian.

Norwegian had 2,141,613 passengers in August, up 7 per cent from August 2022.
The capacity (ASK) was 3,527 million seat kilometres, while actual passenger
traffic (RPK) was 3,006 million seat kilometres. Unit revenue (RASK) is
estimated at NOK 0.62, while unit revenue including flight related ancillary
revenue is estimated at NOK 0.74. In August, Norwegian operated an average of 80
aircraft with a regularity, share of scheduled flights taking place, of 99.6
percent. Operations were impacted by the outage at National Air Traffic Services
(NATS) in the UK on 28 August, causing heavy delays and 40 percent of this
month's cancellations. Punctuality was at 82.4 percent in August, the share of
flights departing within 15 minutes of scheduled time. However, 98.0 per cent of
all departed flights arrived on schedule or within one hour of scheduled arrival
time, the highest level so far this year.

"Unforeseen events, such as the storm "Hans" in Scandinavia and air traffic
control issues in the UK affected our operations this month. I am glad that we
were able to set up additional flights between Oslo and Bergen as well as
Trondheim. We also managed to offer alternative flights to all our passengers to
and from the UK on the day following the air traffic issues", said Karlsen.


Solid operations and positive booking momentum

The outlook for this autumn continues to be positive. Capacity has been adjusted
to meet the seasonal variation in demand for the coming winter. Norwegian is
excited to release the summer program for 2024 next week, with further routes to
new destinations being added in November.

"In addition to continued good sales to holiday destinations and domestic routes
particularly, a lot of positive initiatives are currently coming to life at
Norwegian. Our partnership with Strawberry will contribute to adding value to
our passengers' travel experiences, while the exclusive contract with the
Norwegian Armed Forces demonstrates our strong value offering. We are however
concerned about the potential increases in airport fees in Norway and how this
may negatively impact our customers," said Karlsen.
