Norwegian Air Shuttle is a Norwegian low-cost carrier founded in 1993 and headquartered in Fornebu, Norway. It is one of Europe's largest budget airlines, known for offering affordable fares on a wide network of short- and medium-haul routes across Europe, as well as select long-haul destinations. The airline underwent significant financial restructuring during the COVID-19 pandemic, emerging in 2021 with a leaner operation focused primarily on the European market after discontinuing its transatlantic long-haul services. Norwegian operates under IATA code DY and ICAO code NAX with the callsign NOR SHUTTLE. Norwegian is credited with pioneering low-cost transatlantic travel before its restructuring, and it remains a major player in the European budget aviation sector, competing closely with carriers such as Ryanair and easyJet.
