Opens flights after closed airspace
The error has been corrected and the airspace is gradually opening up to traffic. Due to the incident, there will unfortunately be delays throughout the day.
The reason was a technical error at the Oslo Control Center, which meant that the airspace in southern Norway had major restrictions.
Avinor apologizes for the inconvenience this causes and asks all passengers to comply with the information they receive from their airline.
