Since their delivery the aircraft have experienced a series of technical problems.
Larsson said that Norwegian was not considering cancelling their order at this point, despite the setbacks, but the company may raise the issue of compensation.
One of Norwegian’s Boeing 787s bound for New York from Oslo was unable to take off at the weekend due to a problem with oxygen delivery to the cockpit, which remained unresolved on Monday, said Larsson.
A second Dreamliner then had to be rushed from Stockholm and also fell prey to a technical failure with a valve causing a four hour delay for passengers.
