Norwegian Air Shuttle: Oslo to Murcia

The carrier: Norwegian Air Shuttle

Upside
Great network in Norway; good overall route density. Excellent customer service.

Downside
Only one base (in Warsaw) outside of Norway.

About
Norwegian Air Shuttle is an up-and-comer in the European budget airline market. With its main base in Oslo and secondary hubs in Warsaw, Bergen, and Stavanger and code-sharing arrangements with Fly Nordic, Sterling, and Rossiya (the last a Russian airline) Norwegian Air Shuttle's network is broad.

A huge selling point is Norwegian's fab offerings across the wide expanse of far-flung Norway. Beyond that, the airline's route map is interesting for its even geographic balance.
