Norwegian Air To Suspend Belfast To US Flights During Winter Months
Budget airline Norwegian Air is to suspend its transatlantic flights from Belfast for the winter months.
The airline started operating routes from Belfast International Airport to the greater New York and Boston areas less than a year ago.
The airline said it made the decision due to "lower demand".
A spokesperson said: "There is stronger passenger demand for flights from Belfast to the New York and Boston areas in the summer period and they will continue through October.
"We will continue to assess our transatlantic route performance as we confirm the route schedule for summer 2019."
