bentoTips:
  - label: Lounges
    title: There is no open lounge
    detail: >-
      SAS Café Lounge was removed in the terminal rebuild and has not reopened.
      FlyerTalk (Feb 2025) and Sleeping in Airports (updated 2026-03-30) both
      report no lounge. Skip Priority Pass expectations.
    summary: Plan seating in the gate area or at O’Learys / Ritazza / Herfra instead.
    category: status
  - label: Timing
    title: Winter banks beat 'small airport' instincts
    detail: >-
      Morning SAS/Norwegian banks plus Northern Lights tourism create sudden
      security and bag-drop queues; weather delays cascade. No official MCT is
      published here.
    summary: Build more buffer Nov–Mar than the terminal size suggests.
    category: timing
  - label: Food
    title: Use official outlet names
    detail: >-
      Avinor lists Ritazza Coffee, Herfra, Narvesen, Nordlysbaren, and O’Learys
      airside/landside as applicable. Nordlysbaren is not available on Svalbard
      flights per the official store page.
    summary: >-
      Late evening choice shrinks — grab Narvesen or landside options earlier if
      your flight is odd-hours.
    category: food
  - label: Transport
    title: Flybussen or buses 40/42 first
    detail: >-
      Official Avinor public-transport page: Airport Express to hotels/UiT/UNN;
      city routes 40 and 42 with Troms Mobillett. Taxi stand is left outside
      arrivals (~10 min to centre) and drivers must quote price first.
    summary: >-
      Pre-check Troms Reise / Mobillett rather than assuming a queue taxi in a
      snow squall.
