Visit Austin and Norwegian Air announce Austin as part of their new route expansions

Visit Austin, Norwegian Air and Austin Bergstrom International Airport (ABIA) has announced Austin as one of two new US routes from London Gatwick Airport. The announcement comes after Norwegian Air celebrates their third anniversary since it first began low-cost long-haul services from Gatwick. “The new service from Gatwick Airport will provide opportunity for additional visitors connecting from throughout the world and from the U.K.,” said Tom Noonan, president and CEO of Visit Austin. “With year over year increases in visitors from the U.K. and beyond, we anticipate this flight will be very successful. The addition of this route is also a direct reflection of how our city continues to evolve as a premier destination for travelers.” Starting on 27 March 2018, Norwegian will begin flights to Austin with a new year-round, three-weekly service to ABIA, with fares available from £239 one way and Premium fares from £579. The eight hour flight will depart from Barbara Jordan Terminal at 4.20pm and arrive in London at 7.20am.
