Some Norwegian Air passengers flying this month from New York to London are in for a superjumbo upgrade.
The European discounter, which has a shortage of aircraft because of problems with Rolls-Royce engines on its Boeing 787s, temporarily will rent an Airbus A380 from Hi Fly, a charter operator, an airline spokesman confirmed Thursday.
For much of August, Norwegian will fly the A380 on its overnight departure from JFK Airport to London Gatwick. The spokesman Norwegian said the lease “most likely” will last for 20 days, and should start soon, though he declined to give exact dates.
Hi Fly kept Singapore’s configuration, meaning some Norwegian’s flyers could be in for an unexpected treat. Norwegian passengers who booked premium economy recliners instead will be assigned flatbed seats in business class or suites in first class.
