Wizz Air launches 7 new domestic routes in Norway!

Hungarian low-cost airline Wizz Air announced it will launch 7 new domestic routes in Norway!

The airline will open a new base in Oslo Gardermoen with 2 aircrafts.

The new routes are following:

✈ Oslo <> Alesund
✈ Oslo <> Bodo
✈ Stavanger <> Tromso
✈ Stavanger <> Trondheim
✈ Tromso <> Bodo
✈ Tromso <> Trondheim
✈ Trondheim <> Bodo

These new domestic routes will start operating from 5th December 2020.

These new routes are another addition to previously announced new routes from Oslo:

✈ Oslo <> Bergen
✈ Oslo <> Tromso
✈ Oslo <> Trondheim

It looks that Wizz Air means its expansion in Norway seriously.

The airline has been one of the best in Europe to overcome COVID-19 drop in airline traffic as it has already launched many new bases and routes across the whole region and its flight occupancy remains relatively high.

Wizz Air will have to count with a tough competition as 3 other airlines already operate on most of these routes.

Norwegian Air Shuttle, Scandinavian Airlines (SAS), and Widerøe all operate these same domestic routes.

While Wizz Air will be flying multiple times a day to each city besides Trondheim, their daily frequencies pale in comparison to those of their direct competitors.

At the time of writing, Norwegian Air Shuttle is scheduled to run about 13 round-trips per day between Oslo and Bergen in November.

SAS is scheduled to run up to 17 round-trips per day between the two cities.

Although it remains to be seen how successful this expansion ends, it is definitely a good news for all fans of cheap travelling as tickets start from just 99 NOK for one-way flight on all of these routes.
