Norwegian flight changes... again

[Allisonjane]

I've had 3 emails in 3 weeks informing me of changes, 1st just the flight number change, so no problem with that, 2nd was a 6 hour time change both ways, not happy as prefer a later flight especially coming home, but not the end on the world so accepted it. Today I get a 3rd email, the outbound flight has changed again, only by 10 minutes so again not a problem, but now we have lost our seats. Row 6, one of only 2 extra leg room seats on the plane that children can sit in, we booked them the day they went on sale last year. I've phoned Norwegian who tell me there's been an aircraft change, to a 787-9, as far as I'm aware we were always on a 787-9, it looks as though they are adding some extra rows of premium, as ecomony now starts at row 9, the Norwegian agent didn't seem to know anything about this on the phone, just kept saying it was an aircraft change.
Anyone on here know of any changes and extra seats being added to their premium cabin?
Also on one of the flights they have put us in row 27, an exit row, but we have an 11 year old, will we be allowed to sit here, it's the middle section and there's not actually a warning on those ones, only on the window block of 3?
Really not happy at the moment, but don't think there's anything I can do

Thanks for posting. Just checked my flights. Our outbound has changed to 10 mins earlier but our seats are still the same seat numbers. Hopefully this will be the end of the changes!

Norwegian are introducing from this month brand new 787 9s from LGW first these feature their new style PE cabin with extra seats in it.
Read this when flying europe with work last month on Norwegian in flight mag.
On seat I assume new extra legroom must be ok as airline has allocated them to you.
Enjoy.

theres a thread running about them using the dreaded hifly and another about their finances, just search up top right...

Hi

I have also read an article that says Norwegian are introducing a larger premium cabin on its new 787-9 planes. It seems there will be 56 premium seats and 282 economy seats on the new planes.

This might explain why your seats have changed and economy on your flight starts in row 9 rather than row 6.

I haven’t had an email re time change but have just logged into my account and can see it is leaving 10mins earlier. I have checked seats and we still have same ones. Looks like Premium is still 5 rows though.

I also got the email today (like you 3rd change!), however we've kept our row 6 extra leg room seats :s

Really hoping this is the last change.. I now dread whenever I get an email from them!

What dates do you go? Our seat map shows ecomony starting in row 9 both ways, our friends out there at the same time but on different flights, have the old seat map, starting at row 6 one way and the new one with row 9 the other way. So looks like the new plane will be flying some days but not all of them.

We fly the 18th September returning on the 6th October. Both flights are showing the original
seat map as we are still in row 6.

Really hope it's not changed nearer the time as there are no more extra leg room seats and like you, we booked the day they was released!

Our flight time has changed from 10:00 to 09:50 but same seats at the moment. We are row 8 though so if the plane is changed and economy starts row 9 then we’ll be shifted so we’ll keep checking to see if that happens.
