Buy Norra with Alternative Airlines
Nordic Regional Airlines, often referred to as 'Norra' is a Finnish airline. It is a subsidiary of Finnair and flies scheduled passenger flights. It sometimes flies flights on behalf of Finnair, using Finnair's livery and branding and it sometimes operates flights using its own livery and branding. Nordic Regional Airlines is based at Helsinki Airport (HEL) and offers regional flights to more than 40 destinations across Europe, flying to destinations close to or within Finland.
Norra launched flights in 2011 under the name 'Flybe Nordic'. Originally, both Finnair and Flybe had shared ownership of Norra. However, in 2015, Finnair gained full ownership as the parent airline and as result, Flybe Nordic was rebranded as Nordic Regional Airlines, or Norra, which is what it's still known as today.
When booking flights through Alternative Airlines, Norra flights might be displayed as Finnair. This is because Norra often operates flights on behalf of Finnair, with a Finnair plane, branding and service.
