From 2010 Norwegian’s Boeing 737-800 aircraft will be delivered with “Boeing Sky Interior”. The new design features curving architecture and new cove lightning based on Boeing’s “Dream Liner” interior. The LED “mood” lightning will add to the feeling of spaciousness and improve the cabin perception. The cabin crew can also simulate sun set and sun rise, enhancing passenger comfort and ambience.

The new design offers larger, pivoting overhead stowage bins that add to the openness of the cabin. The bins give more passengers room to store a carry-on roll-aboard near their own seat, adding both extra convenience and extra legroom. Speakers are integrated into each row's passenger-service unit to improve sound and clarity of public address operations, while the new integrated air vent and improved noise-dampening materials reduce overall cabin noise by up to 2 dB.

The new interior will also feature modern sculpted sidewalls which adds to cabin width. Together with other architectural features such as pivot bins and LED “mood lighting”, the cabin will appear significantly larger and wider. The inner “reveal” of the windows and the window shades have also been redesigned, adding a bit to the maximum viewable area.
Norwegian has decided to reduce the number of seats from 189 to 186 to enhance the seat pitch. In addition, all new aircraft will be equipped with new Recaro seats which offer increased legroom without compromising capacity. This is achieved by moving the seat pocket upwards and by making the seatback slimmer using new materials which does not compromise comfort.

In addition to the visual improvement, the new interior is lighter, meaning lower fuel burn. Combined with optimized design on fuselage, control surfaces and engine components to overall fuel reduction per seat will be approximately 2 % per seat kilometer compared to brand new aircraft delivered today.
