No Norwegian for Tel Aviv

Norwegian has removed the planned operational schedule for Gatwick – Tel Aviv.  (See BTN 28 October)  Evidently the airline has had second thoughts in competing with British Airways (Heathrow), easyJet (Luton and Manchester) and El Al (Heathrow and Luton). 

easyJet was thought to be considering a Gatwick service following its successful Luton introduction but clearly the South London airport does not have the same conurbation as Luton for their passenger mix.

Norwegian does fly to Tel Aviv, but from Stockholm, twice weekly with a Boeing 737-800, the flight time 4hrs 50mins. www.norwegian.com
