Norwegian set a new passenger record in July as it carried almost 3.8 million passengers in a single month.
Total passenger numbers rose by 13% over the same month previous year. The load factor was 93%.
This came as Europe’s third largest low cost carrier grew capacity by 35% in the month.
Norwegian operated 99.2% of scheduled flights in July, but only 67.9% departed on time.
“The on-time performance this month was heavily influenced by widespread air traffic control strikes in Europe,” the airline said.
CEO Bjørn Kjos said: “We are very pleased that an increasing number of passengers in Europe, USA, South America, the Middle East and Asia choose Norwegian for their travels.
“It is also satisfactory that even with a strong capacity growth our load factor is high.
“Our capacity growth is still high, but it is not increasing as rapidly as in previous months, which is in line with our strategy.
“We have been through a long period of strong growth and going forward we will reap what we have sown for the benefit of our customers, staff and shareholders.”
