Norwegian (Oslo Gardermoen) CEO Bjorn Kjos says the Scandinavian LCC is considering entering the UK domestic market. Speaking in Edinburgh, Scotland to whip up support for London Gatwick's bid for a second runway, Kjos said the launch of flights to the British capital would help bolster the carrier's Gatwick transatlantic hub.

“We will also be looking into how we can create new routes from Edinburgh to feed into our fast-growing global network at London Gatwick, which would further boost the choices available to Scottish passengers," he said.

Norwegian currently serves London Gatwick, Edinburgh, Birmingham, GB and Manchester International in the UK offering connectivity to forty regional and international destinations.

At present, the ch-aviation capacity analysis tool shows flybe. (2002) (Exeter) controls the UK domestic market with 30.33% of all weekly capacity followed by easyJet (London Luton) and British Airways (BA, London Heathrow) with 28.84% and 28.76% respectively.
