🏢 Terminal Information
Ålesund Airport (AES), Vigra, in Norway serves as a vital regional international airport, handling both domestic flights and a growing number of international routes, primarily to European destinations, supporting the city of Ålesund and its surrounding Møre og Romsdal county. The airport operates from a single, modern terminal building designed for efficient passenger flow and comfort. Its layout is straightforward and integrated, featuring clearly defined zones for check-in, security screening, and departure gates. All essential services and amenities are conveniently located within this single structure, eliminating the need for complex inter-terminal transfers. Walking times within the terminal are minimal, typically ranging from 5 to 15 minutes to reach most gates, ensuring a smooth and stress-free experience for passengers.\n\nSecurity procedures at AES adhere to stringent Norwegian and European Union aviation standards. Passengers can expect thorough screening protocols for both carry-on and checked baggage, along with personal security checks. The airport generally experiences reasonable wait times at security checkpoints, rarely exceeding 15-20 minutes even during peak travel periods, benefiting from its well-managed operations and moderate passenger volume. For international flights, immigration and customs facilities are integrated within the main terminal. Travelers undergo standard passport control and customs declaration procedures. While Ålesund Airport does not offer services like Global Entry, the efficient processing typically ensures these border formalities are handled without significant delays.\n\nAmenities at Ålesund Airport are well-appointed for a regional international facility. While there are no extensive luxury airline lounges, comfortable waiting areas are available. Dining options typically include a selection of cafes and snack bars, offering beverages and light meals, with choices reflecting local Norwegian cuisine and some international selections. Retail facilities are modest, possibly including a duty-free shop for international travelers, a newsstand, or a small shop for travel essentials and souvenirs. Accessibility features are robust, with barrier-free access, accessible restrooms, elevators, and dedicated services for passengers with reduced mobility available upon request.
