Norse Atlantic sees passenger growth, high load factors in November

Norse Atlantic Airways reported a 97% load factor across its operations in November 2025, a 5-percentage-point increase compared to the same month last year. The load factor in its own scheduled network reached 94%, up from 89% in November 2024. The airline transported 123,580 passengers across its network and ACMI/charter operations, a 31% increase year-over-year. A total of 459 flights were operated in November 2025, including 225 ACMI/charter flights, compared to 128 in November 2024.

The company completed 97% of its scheduled flights, though this was a 3-percentage-point decrease year-over-year. Punctuality for flights departing within 15 minutes of their scheduled time was 73%, a 9-percentage-point increase compared to last year, despite ongoing impacts from air traffic control delays and airport congestions. As of November, five aircraft were engaged in ACMI charters for IndiGo, with a sixth expected in early 2026.

Chief executive Eivind Roald highlighted the consistent industry-leading load factors, increased production, and strong passenger growth, attributing it to a modern fleet, data-driven commercial model, and attractive product. The transition to a balanced business model, featuring a focused own network and long-term charters, is on track for full impact next year, with half the fleet generating stable earnings and six aircraft operating the high-grade own network.
