As a further point of interest, it turns out there is quite a bit of re-structuring going on within Norwegian at the moment and the speculation in the local Oslo media is that it is related to negotiations with outside companies and the need to appease government regulators before approving a sale. Apparently all outstanding pilot training bonds are being refunded. Nearly 200 pilots were recently transferred to a new long haul base in CPH and were brought under a permanent, direct employment relationship status with the company, with a union negotiated contract. Supposedly this is to appease Norwegian government regulators who will not approve any sale while the company is holding on to employee training bonds and they require a certain percentage of employees be included as part of the deal. This comes as second hand information.
