Norwegian Air UK, the UK unit of Norwegian, is suspending scheduled flights from London Gatwick to Singapore from 11 January 2019. The last B787-9 flight of Norwegian to Singapore from Gatwick is on 10 January 2019 while the final outbound flight to Gatwick from Singapore falls on 11 January 2019.

According to Norwegian winter flight schedules with effect from 28 October 2018, Norwegian Air UK flight DI7407 departs from Gatwick for Singapore on Wednesdays and Sundays at 10.50 am, arrives in Singapore at 7.30 am on Thursdays and Mondays. Flight DI7408 leaves Singapore for Gatwick on Mondays and Thursdays at 9.30 am and touches down in Gatwick at 3.40 pm local time.

On Mondays and Thursdays, flight DI7409 takes off from Gatwick for Singapore at 11.55 pm, lands in Singapore Changi Airport Terminal 1 at 8.35 pm on Tuesdays and Fridays before leaving Singapore for Gatwick at 10.50 pm and arriving in Gatwick at 5 am local time under flight DI7410.

Norwegian is not represented by a GSA or a Norwegian sales office in Singapore. There is no commercial marketing activity outside the digital world on the Gatwick-Singapore route service. The withdrawal of Norwegian Air UK from the Singapore travel markets is a siren to other airlines operating flights to Singapore without any marketing representative and ticketing sales office in the Lion City.

Norwegian Air UK's first scheduled flight to Singapore from Gatwick is on 28 September 2017.
