The World Travel Awards were established in 1993 to acknowledge, reward and celebrate excellence across all key sectors of the travel industry and they are recognized globally as one of the ultimate hallmarks of industry excellence.

"We are very proud to have been once again voted Europe’s leading Low-Cost airline, which is a reflection of the dedication of our 9,500 hard-working colleagues. Norwegian continues to offer exceptional value across our expanding global network and is recognized as an industry leader in the low-cost sector. We would like to thank the thousands of customers and industry peers that have once again cast their vote for Norwegian," said Bjørn Kjos, Norwegian’s CEO.

“Winning is tough but staying on top is even tougher, and Norwegian has proven its world-class credentials by winning ‘Europe’s Leading Low-Cost Airline’ for the fourth year in succession. The airline’s rapid expansion, both short-haul and long-haul, exemplify the World Travel Awards mission to push the boundaries of travel excellence,” said Graham E. Cooke, President & Founder, World Travel Awards.
