In the long term maintenance is also out of the country. It should be the aircraft supplier, Boeing, deal.
Pilots and cabin crew who will fly the new long routes, won`t be engaged in Norwegian, but hired by staffing agencies. This is how Norwegian save personnel costs.
- The cabin crew will be mainly Thais. Anyone can apply, but they must stay in Bangkok. The most important thing is that they are experienced and skilled. Since Norwegian is norwegian [company], we need pilots with European certificates, says Kjos.
