Norwegian releases routes for the winter season 2025-2026
Today, Norwegian opens the sale of flight tickets for the next winter season. From the UK, travelers can enjoy direct flights from London Gatwick, Manchester, and Edinburgh to various Nordic destinations. The airline will continue its popular winter routes to Tromsø and Rovaniemi, as well as flights to Nordic capitals and other regional cities.
– This winter, our winter routes to Tromsø and Rovaniemi are very popular, and we will continue flying these routes also next winter. In addition, we are opening for booking tickets to the Nordic capitals and other regional cities, says Magnus Thome Maursund, Chief Commercial Officer in Norwegian.
In addition to the routes to Tromsø and Rovaniemi, Norwegian will continue direct flights between the UK from London Gatwick to Copenhagen, Stockholm, Oslo, Helsinki, Trondheim, Bergen and Stavanger. And from Manchester to Copenhagen, Oslo, Stavanger, Bergen and Tromsø.
In 2024 London was the most popular destination in all Norwegian’s network outside the Nordic countries.
Norwegian also operate direct routes from Dublin to and from Oslo, and between Edinburgh and Copenhagen, Stockholm and Oslo.
For the upcoming winter season 2025-2026, Norwegian offers a total of 159 routes to 82 destinations. New destinations will be released at a later time.
The routes are distributed as follows in the Nordic countries:
Norway: 94
Denmark: 32
Sweden: 28
Finland: 14
The reason the total does not equal 159 is that some routes between two countries are counted in both countries.
Norwegian operates both a summer and a winter program, switching twice a year, at the end of October and at the end of March, respectively. In a few weeks, the summer program will start with over 340 routes to more than 120 destinations, including a new direct route between Ålesund and London/Gatwick as well as between Newcastle and Copenhagen.
