Norwegian's major leasing companies have objections to the airline's application to return dozens of aircraft as part of the rescue plan, E24 and Aftenposten report on Thursday.

The lawyer for a group of major creditors announced at the first part of a lengthy court hearing in Ireland on Thursday that there are clear objections.

Leasing companies oppose Norwegian's application to return dozens of leased aircraft, writes E24.

Additionally, it appears that lawyers for a number of creditors spent the first part of Thursday's trial arguing that more time is needed.

However, more time is something Norwegian does not want to provide, and the airline's lawyer Brian Kennedy argued to Irish judge Michael Quinn that the process then risks "sliding away.".
