- Airline also launches a special limited offer of discounted fares from London to select USA destinations
Norwegian will offer a free long-haul ticket and Premium upgrade next year to its most frequent flyers in 2018. The carrier is also offering discounted fares to consumers on select Florida routes from London Gatwick with a special discount code that can be used by Wednesday 4 July at www.norwegian.com/uk.
Norwegian has grown to become the second largest long-haul airline at London Gatwick offering 13 long-haul routes with an average of 60 weekly departures to the USA, Argentina and Singapore. The airline’s award-winning loyalty scheme, Norwegian Reward, has amassed 1.1 million members in the UK. Members benefit from earning CashPoints when they book flights and purchase services from Reward’s growing number of UK partners which can be used to cover the cost of any Norwegian flight.
Last year, Limited Edition Rewards first launched and gave Norwegian Reward members a free long-haul flight or an upgrade in 2018. This year, Norwegian and Norwegian Reward are giving customers the opportunity to benefit from free flights and extra comfort in 2019.

Brede Huser, Managing Director at Norwegian Reward said: “Our most loyal customers can receive a free long-haul flight and upgrade to Premium as a thank you for regularly flying Norwegian.
“Our generous annual Limited Edition Rewards promotion builds upon its popularity from last year and even if consumers aren’t able to qualify, they can still earn CashPoints while flying in high quality comfort at unmatched fares to global destinations.”
