Norwegian is heavily committed to the MAX, a larger, more fuel-efficient version of the Boeing 737, which it has configured to seat 189 passengers. Earlier this year, a Norwegian MAX aircraft returned to Stockholm after being stranded in Iran for two months, trapped by sanctions. This Sunday, an Ethiopian Airlines 737 MAX crashed outside Addis Ababa, killing all 157 on board. Last October, a Lion Air 737 MAX went down in Indonesia in October shortly after take-off, killing all 189 passengers on board. Norwegian has built its expansion over the last ten years on the most fuel-efficient Boeing aircraft.
