On Friday (June 5, 2026), Norwegian Air Shuttle announced the signing of a new agreement with the Swedish government and the Legal, Financial and Administrative Services Agency.  The agreement applies to government agencies, as well as agencies under the Riksdag and other publicly controlled bodies such as agencies, colleges and universities, and covers 21 destinations across Europe.


In Friday’s announcement, Norwegian’s Sales Director, Ståle Zahl, said,


“It is gratifying that Norwegian has continued to receive the confidence of the Legal, Financial and Administrative Services Agency and that the authority has entered into a new agreement with us.  We see the fact that we are allowed to fly government employees on international trips as a confirmation that we have a strong and reliable product with high punctuality in modern and fuel-efficient aircraft.”


This agreement is valid from December 12, 2026 for a duration of four years. As previously mentioned, the agreement covers 21 destinations in Europe with sales of approximately SEK 1.5 billion (US $159 million) during the agreement period.  Last year, Norwegian also received a four-year agreement with the Legal, Financial and Administrative Services Agency for domestic flights.  Norwegian also offers sustainable aviation fuels to organizations, authorities and companies with which the airline has agreements.


Norwegian is a leading Nordic aviation group headquartered in Fornebu in Bærum. The company has over 8,900 employees and owns Norwegian Air Shuttle and Widerøe Flyveselskap, which was acquired in 2024.  Norwegian Air Shuttle has around 5,200 team members and offers an extensive route network connecting the Nordic countries to popular destinations in Europe.  In 2025, Norwegian carried over 23 million passengers with a fleet of 95 Boeing 737-800 and 737-8 MAX aircraft.  Widerøe Flyveselskap is Norway’s oldest airline and has more than 3,700 employees.  During 2025, Widerøe carried 4.1 million passengers with a fleet of 51 aircraft, including 48 De Havilland Canada Dash-8s and three Embraer E190-E2s.  Additionally, Widerøe Ground Handling provides services at 41 airports in Norway.
