| Description |
|
When the new
Oslo Airport opened in 2017, the
construction over the previous 6 years had
effectively doubled the size of the
facility. The development added 12
new security gates, 34 new check-in
counters, 11 new gates, expanded baggage
handling facilities and a number of
new shops and restaurants. In total it now
covers 265,000 square metres (2,85 million
square feet), up from 148,000 square
metres before the expansion started.
 The Visit Oslo website points out that, "... The arrivals and departures hall is now much larger thanks to the recently opened North Pier, which is integrated into the original terminal with the same characteristic roof shape. In addition the train station is now more closely connected to the centre of the airport, making access easier and walking time shorter. "         The airport is
connected to Oslo by a high-speed rail
link accessed below the terminal
building. It is also connected
by rail to other Norwegian cities
including Trondheim.
