Stokmarknes (SKN): the airport bus is run by Sortland Taxi
The link between Skagen airport and Sortland is operated by the local taxi company rather than a bus operator, takes about twenty minutes, and is booked through them.
Sortland Taxi operates the airport bus between Sortland and Skagen Airport Stokmarknes.
The trip takes about 20 minutes.
Schedules and prices are published at 07550.no, the taxi operator's own site, not by Avinor.
The phone number is +47 91 16 32 06.
A separate scheduled bus network also serves the area, with times at reisnordland.no.
Sortland is the practical destination, the largest town in Vesteralen and the road junction for the islands.
The airport is at Skagen, in Hadsel municipality, on Hadseloya in Vesteralen.
This is the airport for the Vesteralen islands and the northern end of Lofoten.
Because a taxi firm runs the bus, calling ahead is the sensible move, especially outside the main season.
The airport bus
It is operated by Sortland Taxi, not by a bus company. That is common in this part of Norway and it changes how you use it: the timetable and the prices live on the operator's own site, and a phone call is a normal way to arrange a seat.
Sortland to Skagen Airport Stokmarknes takes about 20 minutes.
Schedules and prices: 07550.no. Phone: +47 91 16 32 06.
The scheduled network
Nordland's ordinary bus services also run in the area, with times at reisnordland.no.
Between them these cover Hadsel, Sortland and the road south into Lofoten.
Where this is
Skagen airport is in Hadsel municipality on Hadseloya, in Vesteralen.
Sortland is the main town of the region and the junction for roads north to Andoya and south into Lofoten.
Stokmarknes is also where Hurtigruten began, and the coastal ships still call there.
Taxi
Norwegian taxi fares are deregulated. The driver must tell you the price before the journey starts.
