Has anyone flown Norwegian
recently LGW to MCO.
Did you have seat back entertainment or were you on an old plane with no screens?

Flew in April it was a Dreamliner so new plane and seatback, my understanding is the leased planes due to the latest Dreamliner recall on LGW MCO do but LGW MIA may not . Planes they use are older than the Dreamliner but not as old as BA and Virgin are currently using on LGW MCO so it's all relative.

Ah ok it's all quite confusing with plane recalls at the moment.
I don't mind an older plane but IFE would be good for DS as the ipad would run out.

They are using a Hi Fly leased plain till some time in October. We fly with them in August. My daughter's friend recently flew on it. She said it was very good. Seat back tv's and more leg room than usual. I think they used to cram less seats in when it was last refitted.

We are due to fly with Norwegian soon and was concerned about some of the stories on leased planes etc. I gave them a call to see what plane we would be on flying Gatwick to MCO and I was told without doubt it would be the Dreamliner.

Apparently on certain days they are still using the Dreamliner.
