The Norwegian Group carried 2.8 million passengers in June, with Norwegian transporting 2.4 million passengers and regional carrier Widerøe contributing a record 404,000 passengers.
Norwegian increased capacity by 8% year-on-year, while its load factor declined to 83.6%, down 4.8 percentage points from June 2025. The airline operated an average of 93 aircraft during the month and maintained a regularity rate of 99.3%.
Widerøe also expanded capacity by 7% compared to last year and became the first time in its history to carry more than 400,000 passengers in a single month. The regional airline recorded a load factor of 78.1%, while punctuality improved to 92.8%.
Norwegian Group CEO Geir Karlsen said demand for summer leisure travel remains solid, with the company expecting a particularly busy July as travellers head to beach destinations and Nordic “coolcation” locations.
