  • Norwegian can trace its history back to 1966, when it was founded as Busy Bee. This name was dropped in favour of Air Executive Norway, though was re-adopted in 1980. A Fokker F.27 of Busy Bee is pictured at Birmingham Airport in August 1989. The carrier went into liquidation in 1992 and the present-day Norwegian Air Shuttle - which now trades as Norwegian - was formed from the remnants of Busy Bee in 1993.
