Is very nice that you enjoyed the flight with Norwegian. I think is normal to compare norwegian with sas because they are the main airlines in scandinavia. But i have to say that SAS is flag career airline member of star alliance and norwegian is a low cost, is like comparing easy jet and british airways. Otherwise it looks like norwegian is doing great for being compared with sas and even being more loved and prefered for lot of people.

Thanks for your feedback! You do have a point, but since SAS and Norwegian have some similarities, I still thought it was fair to compare the two airlines. It's not like I'm comparing, let's say, Ryanair with Turkish Airlines!
