Norse Atlantic cuts capacity amid fuel price surge, eyes sale and 787 leases
Norse Atlantic Airways is operating at reduced capacity because of high fuel prices and has begun a formal procedure for a possible sale or merger in July, after losing about 92% of its market value this year; its unit revenues rose 35% year‑on‑year and its load factor reached 96.9% while it carried 109,202 passengers in the previous month, roughly a third fewer than in 2025.
The airline is negotiating with other carriers to lease Boeing 787 aircraft that IndiGo will return by the end of October, and its CEO, Eivind Roald, said the company is prioritising bookings to destinations in the Far East.
