HAA · A compact, lounge-free Avinor short-field for Hasvik / Sørøya — free OnePark parking, taxi-first ground access about two minutes from the village, no named airside F&B on Avinor’s directory, Saturday terminal closed with a weekday midday gap, and Arctic island weather on a ~0.9–1.0 km runway, with Widerøe PSO Dash 8s as the published scheduled airline.
HFT · A tiny, lounge-free Avinor STOL field for Hammerfest — short walks, a 6–7 minute hop into town, and essentially no published airside F&B, trading simplicity for wind-sensitive 880 m runway ops and offshore-helicopter complexity.

Saturday is closed — and Sørøya weather owns the clock
Tiny terminal; Saturday fully closed, Sunday only 18:30–21:30, weekday midday gap, and Arctic STOL weather on ~0.9–1.0 km 11/29 are the real planning constraints.
