overtime Agreement
At least 18 Norwegian-flights were canceled at short notice Saturday. This included both domestic and international flights. Flights to popular holiday destinations such as Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus and Spain were canceled, both from Oslo, Værnes and Stavanger.
The cancellations came after an overtime agreement between the airlines and the pilots expired. The contract covers the purchase and sale of holidays.
