Government cooperating with airlines to assist Norwegians in travelling home

The Government has informed the airlines Widerøe, Norwegian and SAS">SAS that the Norwegian state is stepping forward to cover documentable additional costs of maintaining certain flights the airlines would otherwise have cancelled, or of making essential extraordinary flights to carry Norwegians who are travelling home through 31 March 2020. Which routes this will apply to is subject to dialogue with the companies, but of particular concern are the destinations where many travelling Norwegians are for now.
