I upgraded to economy plus and it’s so worth the price. The crew is exceptional and the food is pretty decent. I would definitely fly with them again.

They lost my luggage. Tromso in winter without warm clothes is not fun.

The flight was on time and loading was fine. I really disliked that all drinks other than coffee or tea had a cost. Deplaning was also an issue as people did not wait for those in front of them to get out before they pushed forward

Flight was delayed 3 hours. Pilot cancelled flight under 4 people volunteered to change their seats to economy from business class.

I couldn’t make it to the airport for my original flight due to bad weather; roads were shut down, buses and trains were closed. Since the plane wasn’t cancelled, I still had to pay $720 to change my ticket.

Overall, this flight team did a fantastic job. They came often with the water, coffee and tea. There was no meal choice in coach, but the lasagna lunch was decent. The sandwich snack just before landing was tasty. The baggage bins were large, so no trouble holding carry on luggage.

Last minute cancelation, though a substitute flight was found I could not pick my meal or seat. The hotel offered didn't have working air control or shower.

My seat was not the one I paid for, the crew was very curt, and the cabin was extremely warm.

Old plane with terrible business class seats - good food and service. Boarding was a joke with business class boarding last.

Best airline to travel on a budget- really like their reasonably priced access to the SAS lounges where available.

Overall flight was fantastic.i really enjoy the whole journey .

Little more legroom would have been nice. But it's a very short flight, so it was fine really.

Short flight, some waiting to board, but no issues and no frills.

No staff at the gate and the flights were not posted on the board so we missed our flight. Horrible experience. Be VERY careful flying Norwegian. Super limited ability to communicate with their slim staffing and restricted hours.

Pros: "Nothing,except I got to my destination safely"
Cons: "Everything.They don’t ever offer you WATER in a 10 hour flight!! Check in crew rude. Attends dismissive to rude."
Cons: "Norwegian was unwilling to refund flight to and from Rome in the height of the Coronavirus pandemic."
Pros: "On a long haul flight, when I bought my ticket, Kayak advertised entertainment on my long haul flights. There was none on this flight! Seata were extremely uncomfortable."
Cons: "Stop misleading passengers to make money"
Pros: "Puntualidad y amabilidad en la recepción de equipaje"
Cons: "Pésimo servicio en la llegada a Bergen. No solo no llego una de las valijas, sino que no había nadie en la oficina de reclamos, nos hicieron recorrer todo el aeropuerto hasta que no les quedó otro remedio que ayudarnos. Mala disposición de los empleados. Lo mismo con la recepcionista del buró de información turística"
Pros: "The entertainment was actually great. Literally everything else was terrible."
Cons: "It was the most uncomfortable flight ever. No water served and no refreshments served at all on the 9 hr flight."
Pros: "nothing particularly good—-getting off the plane was a va relief"
Cons: "due to my seating, i was freezing...i had to buy my own blanket for 5 euros and this was no be more than a sheet!"
