Arendal, 10th October 2022: Norse Atlantic Airways expects load factor and yield
to increase across its network from October. Following the decision in September
to remove excess capacity on certain US routes and to operate Los Angeles routes
on a seasonal basis, Norse Atlantic Airways expects a positive increase in load
factors and an uplift in yield across its network during the winter months.

The company continues to have Power by the Hour lease agreements - meaning the
company only pays for an aircraft when it is flying - across the fleet
throughout the winter, which provides aircraft utilisation flexibility at no
cost. Norse has currently taken delivery of 13 of the 15 aircraft it has secured
on flexible, low cost, long-term lease arrangements, four of which are currently
subleased out, guaranteeing a fixed profit for the term of the sublease
agreements; Norse Atlantic is also in negotiations to sublease a fifth aircraft
for 18 months.

The changes to the company's winter network will not result in redundancies. The
company looks forward to ramping up cabin and flight crew recruitment in 2023,
ahead of its expanded summer schedule.

Norse Atlantic is pleased to confirm that the core summer 2023 schedule will be
announced early November, with flights available to book through to October
2023. Other routes will be announced in due course. The company expects to have
10 aircraft in operation at the height of the summer season including a greater
presence out of London Gatwick.

Additional distribution channels have been recently introduced, including
Skyscanner, Finn.no, Travelfusion and, most recently, Google Flights, which have
resulted in an immediate positive increase in forward bookings. During the
winter season traffic from the US to Europe is expected to remain strong with
the net effect of the strong US dollar against the Euro and the British Pound
encouraging early booking patterns.

During the month of September, the UK Civil Aviation Authority granted Norse
Atlantic Airways an Air Operator Certificate and Operating Licence allowing the
company to begin direct flights from the United Kingdom. Norse Atlantic intends
to operate direct point to point flights between the UK and the US, subject to
further regulatory approval.

"We have taken swift action to adjust our winter schedule and remove excess
capacity from our network in light of lower expected demand, high fuel prices
and rising global inflation. The flexibility provided by our power by the hour
aircraft lease agreements has allowed Norse Atlantic to lower cash burn over the
winter period in anticipation of ramping up operations for a strong summer 2023
season. We are pleased that bookings for our remaining core winter routes remain
strong and that ticket sales have been increasing as we expand our distribution
network," said Bjorn Tore Larsen, CEO Norse Atlantic Airways.

During September Norse Atlantic Airways operated 98 per cent of scheduled
flights, the decrease compared to the previous month was related to
cancellations brought about by airport closures linked to Hurricane Ian in
Florida. The airline operated 338 flights in September, which represents a 33
per cent increase compared to August, due to a number of routes commencing mid
-month during that period. 75 per cent of operated flights arrived within 15
minutes of the scheduled arrival time, marking an improvement of more than four
percentage points compared to the previous month.

Norse Atlantic carried 62,749 passengers in September, representing a 7 per cent
increase compared to the previous month. The load factor for September was 56
per cent, a decrease compared to the preceding month linked to excess capacity
on specific routes in the network.

Cargo has continued to perform well month on month; Norse Atlantic expects this
trend to continue on core routes throughout the winter as the airline becomes
more established in certain key markets.
