Just Booked my first Norwegian

I am planning an Alsakan trip next year
Already too late for a 241 or any redemptions
BA are charging £4400 for a Lon ANC rtn in J
In Sale BA are £2400 rtn to SEA in J £2200 rtn in W and £2000 rtn in Y
Alaska Air is £600 rtn SEA to ANC in F

Norwegian have just started a route to seattle for £1200 in premium fully flex return

Surely this is a no brainer; their premium looks better than BA W and is at the front of a dreamliner

The other competitors are Virgin which have also recently started a SEA service andoffer a LHR to ANC for £2400 (through booking) ; but the thought of the VS inward facing coffins in J didn't entice me for £600 extra per person though did like the guaranteed connection for a reasonable price

Am I missing something but this seems serious competition and in acompleyely different price league to BA. Internet reviews of the Norwegian premium product seem favourable
