Norse Airways to launch London and Cape Town flights

Norse Atlantic Airways will launch flights between London and Cape Town in the Western Cape on the  28 of October 2024.

The airline will operate the Boeing 787-9 on the Gatwick-Cape Town route three times weekly, making it their longest airport pair.

The Western Cape MEC for Finance and Economic Opportunities, Mireille Wenger, says that this new route will offer international visitors the opportunity to enjoy the many diverse offerings in the province.

“An influx of tourists is good news for the economy as a whole”, added Mireille Wenger

"By breaking the duopoly on this route, we are not only expanding travel options for consumers but also driving down costs and putting the customer back in the pilot’s seat," said Bjorn Tore Larsen, CEO and founder of Norse Atlantic Airways.
