Feel Air was a proposed Norwegian budget airline unveiled in October 2009, with plans to operate long-haul flights departing from Oslo Airport, Gardermoen, and Stockholm Arlanda Airport. The carrier aimed to commence service in spring 2011, utilizing Airbus A330-200 aircraft to connect Oslo and Stockholm with New York City's John F. Kennedy International Airport and Bangkok's Suvarnabhumi Airport.
The enterprise targeted a workforce of 160 personnel and sought to raise 240 million Norwegian krone in equity through DNB Markets. Under the leadership of Kai Holmberg and Otto Lagarhus, and based in Ramstad, Bærum, Norway, Feel Air intended to blend Ryanair’s low-cost operational framework with AirAsia X’s service approach alongside Virgin Atlantic’s branding and employee relations strategies.
Focusing on leisure market segments, the airline planned to increase flight frequencies seasonally—more flights to New York during summer months and to Thailand in winter. Financial projections included an EBITA of NOK 48 million in the initial year, assuming a yield of $0.05 per revenue unit, rising load factors from 49% to 76%, and daily aircraft utilization averaging 16.7 hours.
Ultimately, Feel Air did not launch operations and discontinued its plans by the end of 2011.
