Close to a year after the glorious announcement of S$240 direct flights to London, Norwegian Air will be halting the service by early Jan 2019.
Citing overly competitive costs due to fuel, the short-lived deal was truly too good to be true.

Although Norwegian Air hasn’t made an official statement, news outlets have reported that they intend to replace the service with a direct flight from Rio de Janeiro instead.
This could be their bid to expand in Latin America with a new service from Rio de Janeiro to London’s Gatwick Airport, to be launched by “Spring 2019”.
Customers who have booked flights after 12 Jan will be offered either:
Looks like Singapore Airlines and Qantas – which still charter direct flights to London – will be the biggest winners from this decision.
They also made Top 5 of Changi Airport’s punctual list by the way.
So if you’re considering a trip soon, do take note.
However, be warned that their prices could be less competitive — but way more sustainable as compared to Norwegian.
To all the Singaporeans who survived the 12 hr 45 min journey on Norwegian’s short-lived direct flights to London…
Consider yourselves one of the lucky few who lived to tell the budget tale.
