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.
