What you are signing up for
Short sectors, small aircraft, weather that matters, and airports that can feel like a friendly shed with serious professionals inside. Bags still matter. Schedules still slip.
How to stay sane
- Arrive earlier than your big-airport instincts suggest
- Watch status changes on the board
- Do not book a same-day international finale after three coastal hops unless you enjoy gambling
The payoff
Views. Communities that would otherwise be ferries-and-hope. A sense that Norway’s map is three-dimensional.
