Norwegian's monthly traffic figures for December show that more than 930,000
passengers flew with Norwegian. This represents a significant increase compared
with the same month in 2020, however, the month of December was also strongly
affected by government-imposed measures and restrictions.

Christmas and New Year flights operated as planned with capacity that took into
account lower demand as a result of the positive infection situation and
government-imposed restrictions.

"I am pleased that we have efficiently balanced the planning and implementation
of our route network and production for December. This in turn meant that
passengers could book and travel on Norwegian with confidence during the festive
period allowing families and friends to be reunited. Lower demand was factored
into our schedules during Christmas and the New Year weekend, therefore I am
pleased to report that load factors are good for December as well. We have seen
an effect on general demand from the spread of the Omicron virus and the
subsequent new measures and restrictions in Scandinavia and abroad," says Geir
Karlsen, CEO of Norwegian.

In December, Norwegian carried 931,917 passengers, compared with 129,664 in
December 2020. Total capacity (ASK) was 1,536 million, while total passenger
traffic (RPK) was 1,095 million. The load factor was 71.3 percent. Unit revenue
(RASK) is estimated at NOK 0.38, an 8 percent reduction from the same period
last year. 

"Norwegian was recently named the most punctual Nordic airline and the third
most punctual airline in Europe. Despite having gone through a challenging year,
I am proud that we have managed to deliver a high-quality product", continued
Geir Karlsen.

In December, Norwegian had an average of 48 aircraft in operation, while 99.6
per cent of scheduled flights were operated. Punctuality was 83.8 percent.
