Been browsing to find a holiday in Santorini next June and happened upon a site called Kayak which were advertising flights using Norwegian Airlines for £79 compared to well over double that for everywhere else.
Booked a hotel separately and hopefully have sorted a real bargain compared to a package to the same place.
Anyone else looking for flights would be well served looking at that site

Funnily enough looking for flights to Stockholm next year and Norwegian came out cheapest.
Just be aware that they are a budget airline and if you get the cheapest tickets class then you pay extra to check in baggage.
Seem decent enough airline though, newer planes and Wi-Fi.
I'll check out the site you recommended later. I use skyscanners normally.

I've flown with Norwegian on a few occasions and they're pretty good for a budget airline.
Only costs £7 for 20kg of checked in luggage so not bad, and the WiFi can be a bit patchy as you would expect but for free is a welcomed addition. Also you can pick a seat for no extra charge when checking in at the airport rather than the seat scramble with the usual budget airlines.

Norwegian are looking at doing flights to the States for 150 quid one way. I'll take one of those.

I always fly Norwegian now, brand new fleet, decent comfort for budget and nowhere near as many delays as BA

That's because there is only 1 airport and 3 passengers at any one time.

It's JFK but lot of the cheap flights are sold out already. September 2014 looks good though! They are also flying to la and fort lordadale but more expensive for obvious reasons. Might only need one way ticket, it's a dreamliner  |

I go to Scandinavia a lot on business and they are great. Food and drink on board is pricey but they are much better than Easyjet or Ryanair. They are having a few problems with their dreamliners though.

Think it will be a good plane once Boeing iron out the teething problems. I say teething problems, I guess the battery catching fire was fairly serious.. |
