In Aftenposten this week an article tried to educate Norwegian travellers on how to get to their flights on time. This year daily around 20 passengers lose their flights because they are too late.
In the end of May 2006 people waited for 40 minutes for check-in and were so angry, the airport authorities had to call in the police!
In June this year 1.8 million passengers went through the airport, the busiest month since the airport opened in 1998. Remember that Norway is a country with close to 4.7 million citizens.
Some of the points in the article :
1. For going abroad to any country you need a pass. Some Norwegians thought they didn't need one for the Schengen countries.

2. For inland flights be at the airport one hour earlier, and for flights abroad an hour and a half.
3. Take a glass of wine, if you want to, but do not exaggerate. Some passengers were too drunk this summer and were not allowed to fly.
Life is different in different countries.....
