May 21, 2015 (newstodate): Plans by Viking International Airlines for launching flights at Norway's Stavanger Lakselv Airport seem to have vaporized, but the airport is still to see a traffic boom this summer.
As was also a key part of Viking's business model, calls by cruise ships in the region requires uplift of passengers and crews on a rotational basis, and this will bring in traffic by both Boeing 747 and Airbus A320 aircraft this summer.
June 6, and June 20, 2015, will see the turn-around at the airport by one Boeing 747-400 from the Spanish carrier Wamos Air and five Airbus A320 from Iberia lifting some 1,800 passengers in and out of the airport.
The airport is not officially granted ICAO status as an international airport but operates as such based on a temporary license by the Norwegian CAA.
