Kristiansand Airport

Hotels near Kristiansand Airport, Arendal, Norway .

Kristiansand (Kjevic) Airport (www.avinor.no) is five miles northeast of the City of Kristiansand and serves the district of Agder. The Airport offers flights within Norway and the rest of Europe and almost 50% of the flights from Kristiansand are business flights. There has been some opposition to the suggestion that charter flights be invited to use Kristiansand as passengers currently board using steps from the tarmac at two entrances on each plane, using a tunnel for charter flights would slow boarding down. Services at the Airport include: a restaurant, shops, a café, banking ATM, and car-hire facilities. Airport services are open from 04.30 to 00.30 Monday to Friday, and 04.30 to 22.30 on Saturday. There is also an airport bus and taxi service to the city of Kristiansand. It is important not to confuse this Airport with Kristiansund in mid Norway.

Arendal is the county town of the Agder region, bordered to the southwest by Grimstadt, the north by Froland and the northeast by Tvedstrand. The town was established in the 1400s and the town centre still has old wooden houses which pre-date the 19th century. This area is called Tyoholm. The inner harbour area, Pollen, is where the fish market, pubs and restaurants are situated. Of interest is the Stove Toringen Lighthouse, 95 feet tall, on a small island off Arendal. Arendal is famous for its music festivals, and the recently formed Hove Festival, five days of music and camping beside the beach, is quickly rivalling others in Norway. There is also a daily boat to Morde Island, where there is a museum, kiosk and beaches.
