Advertising the one-way ticket price bc you're going to get arrested after accidentally making eye contact with Doughy Harry there.

We’re impressed that they got Kevin James from Paul Blart: Mall Cop to feature in the ad.
The expression on the face of the partner of the pasty-inhaling cop pretty much says it all.
Some were offended – not at the stereotype of American culture – but at how lightly the police are treated.
At least he's not actively killing a minority

Give him a minute to finish his doughnut

It’s not the first time Norwegian Air has courted controversy, last year they used the Brangelina split in order to advertise flights.
