Travel information

The best way to get to Trondheim is by plane. From Oslo it takes about 50 minutes by plane and there are around 30 flights every day. There are also direct flights to some European cities. If you choose to travel through Oslo you will need to take your luggage through the customs, re-check it and go through the airport security check again before you can board the plane to Trondheim. This can sometimes be time consuming.

Another (and maybe better) alternative is to choose a direct flight to Trondheim from any of these European cities:
Amsterdam (KLM),
Copenhagen (Wideroe/SAS),
Stockholm (Wideroe/SAS),
London-Stansted (Norwegian),
Nice (Norwegian),
Prague (Norwegian),
Malaga (Norwegian),
Norwegian also has other destinations.
