Norse Atlantic Airways to Launch NY-Rome Flights

Norse Atlantic has launched a new route from New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) to Rome's Fiumicino International Airport  (FCO). This is the fifth European destination that Norse will fly to and the first in the Italian market, following successful launches in Paris, Oslo, Berlin and London.

The first flight is set to take off from New York to Rome on June 20 at 1 a.m. EDT. Tickets are already on sale; prices start at $239 (one-way).

“Rome is such a wonderful destination, and we are thrilled to be able to give Americans the chance to fly there this summer for such a great rate, said Bjorn Tore Larsen, CEO of Norse Atlantic Airways. “Norse is giving travelers the chance to jet off to new and exciting places in our ever-comfortable Boeing 787s. Whether traveling for business or pleasure, we hope this gives customers an incentive to finally book that trip to one of the most beautiful cities on earth.”

“We are pleased to welcome Norse Atlantic Airways to Rome Fiumicino,” said Ivan Bassato, chief aviation officer of Aeroporti di Roma. “This new direct flight to New York JFK will complete the overall offering between the two cities with an outbound evening service which will enrich our customers’ travel options. By choosing Rome FCO, Norse Atlantic Airways is another new airline that has recognized the operational excellence of our airport and the great attractiveness of our market.”
