"The first quarter has shown major improvement on all metrics compared to the first quarter of the previous year. ASK was up about 72% year-on-year, and load factors increased by 19 percentage points with improved revenues per passenger. Norse Atlantic continued to demonstrate robust operational excellence as 100 % of the quarter's scheduled planned flights were completed as planned.

This winter we have developed seasonal strategies, with more emphasis on holiday destinations and charters. Norse Atlantic managed a record high of 107 charter flights during the quarter. We will refine this strategy further for next winter, with several longer-term contracts secured or under negotiation.

We are looking forward to the busiest summer season so far in Norse Atlantic's short history. During the summer the fleet of aircraft operated in Norse's own network increases from 10 to 12 aircraft, representing a capacity growth of 20%.

Norse will continue to focus on careful and profitable growth. We are happy to see that our footprint in the market has increased as the network expands to include Athens this summer, Las Vegas from the fall, and a new continent as Cape Town joins the network in the winter. Our goal is to see CASK continuously decreasing year-on- year for each quarter. Norse remains steadfast in its commitment to achieve the lowest CASK in the Transatlantic market. Norse is on a path towards year-round profitability, and a successful summer 2024 is the next important stepping-stone on that journey," said Bjorn Tore Larsen, CEO and Founder Norse Atlantic Airways.
