Summer travel to Europe is about to get cheaper and more accessible for Americans living in out-of-the-way areas of the American Northeast. Norwegian announced today new routes to the British Isles from airports near Hartford, Providence and New Windsor, N.Y. The trick to offering such low fares, according to airline CEO Bjorn Kjos, is in part, operating out of smaller airports. “You fly out of low cost airports and into low cost airports and that takes away a portion of your expenses,” he told me. Norwegian already offers 40 nonstop routes from U.S. gateway cities like New York, Oakland and L.A. to London, Paris, Scandinavia and the Caribbean.
