A relaxed, stress-free break or an action-filled adventure? Fly with Widerøe and experience the holiday of your choice amidst Norway’s must-see nature attractions.
As Norway is a country with very long distances and rough weather conditions, flying is often the most efficient way to get around. The Norwegian airline Widerøe offers scheduled flights to 42 airports all over Norway, and as many as 24 are located in Northern Norway.
Fly to Bodø or Tromsø and continue to other winter destinations such as Lofoten, Vesterålen, and Finnmark.
Combine SAS and Widerøe
It is easy to combine Widerøe flights with international and domestic SAS flights, as you can reserve all flights under one booking and check the luggage through to your final destination.

Widerøe can take you from Tromsø to eleven airports in Finnmark, amongst them Alta, Kirkenes, and Honningsvåg which is the nearest airport to The North Cape, the northernmost point in mainland Europe. Kirkenes is located near the Russian border, and here you can sleep in a snow hotel and venture out on a king crab safari. Alta is the largest town in Finnmark and a classic northern lights destination.
Widerøe flies from Bodø, Oslo, or Tromsø to three airports in Lofoten: the important hub Svolvær, where you will find a rich cultural life and a number of art galleries, and the traditional fishing villages of Røst and Leknes, both surrounded by raw nature with towering mountains and white sandy beaches.
Northern Norway is by far the largest and most sparsely populated part of mainland Norway and stretches from Helgeland in the south to mainland Europe’s northernmost point near the North Cape.
