Flown with them a few times - New York, Orlando, Fort Lauderdale.

All good here, great experience. Wouldn't hesitate to use them again. In fact, the only reason we are flying with Virgin is that I couldn't believe that I got direct to Miami for £525 with Virgin in the school summer holidays!

Flew with them last year and booked again for this, couldn't fault them. Cabin crew were far friendlier and much more attentive than our usual VA

Flew in September, great flight and easily the cheapest around. Booked again for this year. I would make sure you have good insurance just in case they go belly up, but I'm not too concerned at the moment.

I disagree , our kids (and grandkids) flight home went tech and they were rebooked indirect (direct was offered for a few days later) for seven hours later . Norwegian refunded everything including a day room at the hotel for the layover without quibbling as well as EU 261.
Any plane can go tech (this was air con) but I've certainly had to wait longer for a new flight from the other LGW MCO major players.

That isn't always the norm with Norwegian as some dibbers have waited days for another flight. Glad all went well for your family though.

We have friends that use them to Providence (Boston ish) and they couldn't fault them. They took their own food on as they dont like airline food.

We flew with them last September and thought they were great. I had hoped to fly with them next month too, but Virgin were cheaper.

Indeed , I can only speak from my personal experience . It compared well with waiting four days for Virgin to get us home in similar circumstances and refusing to refund expenses let alone any compensation.

We flew with them last september, big money saving from all the other airlines and direct, and we are using them again this year. The food was not great, but the saving we made i will take our own for the flight.
And we had all 3 seats , happy happy . 👍


And the same on our rtn
