Sandnessjoen (SSJ): one bus, and the return fare is the better buy

Helgeland Transportservice runs a pick-up and drop-off airport bus at 165 kroner one way. A return is 270, so if you are coming back through, buy both halves at once.

  • Helgeland Transportservice runs the airport bus, on a pick-up and drop-off basis.
  • One way costs 165 NOK.
  • A return costs 270 NOK, which saves 60 kroner against two singles.
  • The journey takes about 15 minutes.
  • Timetables are published by Helgeland Transportservice, not by Avinor.
  • Because it is a pick-up and drop-off service, it is worth confirming your journey in advance rather than assuming a bus will be sitting there.
  • The airport is at Stokka, in Alstahaug municipality on Alsten island.
  • This is the airport for the Seven Sisters mountains and the Helgeland coast.
  • Norwegian taxi prices are deregulated. Ask the driver for the fare before you set off.

The airport bus

  • Helgeland Transportservice operates it, and Avinor describes it as a pick-up and drop-off service rather than a fixed-stop route.

  • The return saves 60 kroner, which on a small-airport transfer is worth the thirty seconds it takes to buy.
  • The journey is about 15 minutes.
  • Timetables live with the operator. Avinor links out to Helgeland Transportservice rather than publishing times itself, which is a sign that they move.
  • Confirm your pickup. A pick-up and drop-off service is not a bus you can rely on finding by walking outside.

Where this is

  • The airport is at Stokka, in Alstahaug, on the island of Alsten off the Helgeland coast.
  • This is the airport for the Seven Sisters range and for the Helgeland coastal route.

Taxi

  • Norwegian taxi fares are set by the operator. The driver has to tell you the price before the trip starts.
