As travelers start looking ahead to the summer of 2025, Norwegian Airlines is offering exciting new options to help make holiday plans even more enticing. The airline has just announced the launch of 17 new routes for the upcoming summer season, enhancing its extensive network of 344 routes to 128 destinations across Europe. Among these new routes, three direct connections from the UK will be introduced to vibrant cities: Copenhagen, Riga, and Ålesund.
This move is part of Norwegian’s broader strategy to provide even more flexibility and choice for customers looking to explore Europe during the busy summer months. With these additions, the airline will offer an impressive range of routes departing from the UK to major destinations, all aimed at making travel more convenient and accessible. These routes join Norwegian’s existing connections, offering a diverse mix of city breaks, beach vacations, and cultural experiences.
Magnus Thome Maursund, Norwegian’s Commercial Director, shared his excitement about the new routes, stating, “The summer holidays are something everyone looks forward to, and we’re thrilled to offer new and exciting destinations. From the UK, we are introducing direct routes to vibrant European cities. As the summer months are a busy travel period, we encourage customers to plan and book their holidays early to secure seats.” This emphasis on early booking reflects the increased demand for summer travel, where securing a seat on popular routes can become a challenge as the season approaches.
The introduction of new routes between the UK and these exciting destinations will make it easier for travelers to explore the unique cultural and natural offerings each city has in store. Copenhagen, the charming Danish capital, is known for its welcoming atmosphere, historical sites, and culinary delights. Riga, Latvia’s capital, boasts a beautifully preserved medieval Old Town and a vibrant arts scene. Ålesund, a picturesque Norwegian town, is famed for its stunning Art Nouveau architecture and scenic fjord views making it a must-see for nature lovers and architecture enthusiasts alike.
In addition to expanding services from the UK, Norwegian is also launching new routes from several other countries, including Norway, Denmark, Sweden, Finland, and Latvia. These new connections will offer even more exciting destinations for European travelers, from cultural hubs to hidden gems across the continent.
Norwegian’s 2025 summer program is a testament to the airline’s ongoing commitment to providing affordable and convenient travel options for its customers. With an extensive range of flights from across Europe, the airline is positioning itself as a go-to choice for budget-conscious travelers seeking adventure, relaxation, or cultural immersion.
Travelers should be aware that, due to the high demand for flights during the summer months, booking early is highly recommended to ensure the best prices and availability. Whether you’re planning a city getaway or a scenic escape, Norwegian’s new routes promise to make your European summer adventure more accessible than ever.
With 21 routes already established from the UK to 15 destinations in five countries, Norwegian’s network continues to grow, offering an array of options for those seeking to explore Europe’s diverse cities and landscapes. The new routes to Copenhagen, Riga, and Ålesund are just the beginning of what promises to be an exciting summer season for both seasoned travelers and those looking to discover new destinations in 2025.
