Norwegian Air Shuttle (Norwegian.com and Norwegian.se) (Oslo) is adding well-known Scandinavian personalities to its growing fleet as it expands into Sweden and Denmark. The company has named its Boeing 737-86N LN-NOM (msn 28642) for Greta Garbo (1905-1990). The Swedish-born actress was born Greta Lovisa Gustafsson. The actress’s career came during Hollywood’s silent film period and part of its Golden Age. Garbo received a 1954 Honorary Academy Award “for her unforgettable screen performances” and in 1999 was ranked as the fifth greatest female star of all time by the American Film Institute.
