Pad same-day Bergen (**BGO**) or Oslo connections even when the landside hall looks empty. Overnight stays inside are not part of the published operating pattern. summary: >- Tiny terminal; coastal weather on a short 07/25 and Saturday hour gaps are the real planning constraints — pad Bergen/Oslo connections. category: timing - label: Terminal title: One compact passenger building on Florelandet next to Florø centre detail: >- Check-in and bag drop sit landside in the single passenger terminal. There is no second terminal and no airside train. Re-check screens; gate calls still move when wind, low cloud, or rain slows the field. Widerøe Ground Handling is the published handling agent.
