Norse Flies to Bangkok, Extends Cape Town Flights

Norse Atlantic Airways (N0) will begin its first nonstop Stockholm-Bangkok twice-weekly service in winter 2025.

The twice-weekly service will operate on Wednesday and Sunday from October, 29, 2025, and will compete with Thai Airways (TG) on the route between Stockholm Arlanda Airport (ARN) and Bangkok's Suvarnabhumi International Airport (BKK).

Norse already flies between Oslo and Bangkok since last winter.

The new nonstop parallels British Airways' (BA) recently relaunched flights to Bangkok after a four-year hiatus. These flights now depart from LGW instead of London Heathrow Airport (LHR).

Additionally, the low-cost long-haul carrier has extended its seasonal Cape Town service to include the 2025-2026 summer season.

Norse began its Cape Town service in October 2024, offering three flights per week from London Gatwick Airport (LGW).

A week ago, the airlines successfully touched down for the second time at Antarctica's blue ice Troll Airfield (QAT, in Queen Maud Land, Antarctica.
