Torskefjorden Leasing Ltd was wound up by the High Court on 15 January 2021 after Norwegian Air ended its long-haul services. The Irish-registered company leased 24 wide-body Boeing jets to other group companies operating those routes.

The court appointed Kieran Wallace and Andrew O'Leary of KPMG as joint liquidators. Counsel said the company was no longer commercially viable because its only income came from sub-leasing arrangements, while Norwegian focused on Nordic routes and continued examinership proceedings.
