Norwegian Air has become the first airline in Europe to display live TV in the air. The broadcasts can be seen on board 87 of the company's new B737-800 aircraft. The new service was launched last week on a flight from Oslo to Berlin and will be available on flights from the UK to 29 destinations around Europe.
The low-cost airline is offering passengers access to two live news channels - Norwegian news channel TV2 News and Bloomberg Television. The service is free - passengers can watch live TV on their laptop, tablet or smart phone by connecting to Norwegian’s complimentary in-flight WiFi. Bjørn Kjos, Norwegian CEO, said to the press on board the first flight offering the new service, "We’re very excited to be the first airline in Europe to offer live television on board. Introducing Bloomberg Television and TV 2 News to our passengers opens the door to more content choices and a better overall inflight experience. By offering free Wi-Fi combined with complementary live television, we are setting the stage for a passenger experience like no other in the sky.”
