D.C. is one of four new U.S. destinations launching this summer for Norse. Others are Boston, Los Angeles and San Francisco. The airline now flies to London from seven U.S. airports.



Its flights have two cabin classes — economy and premium — and three fare ranges: Light, Classic and Plus.

Norse was launched in March 2021, and its first flight took off from Oslo to New York on June 14, 2022. Now, it operates a fleet of 15 Boeing 787 Dreamliner aircraft.

Delta Air Lines, United Airlines and British Airways fly nonstop from Dulles to London’s Heathrow Airport.
