“Very good regional airline providing service to hundreds small towns in Scandinavia”
Review of Wideroe


Reviewed 15 June 2017

This was my first flight on an airline I didn't know it existed. It is a very large regional airline providing services to many small and large towns in Norway, Sweden and Finland. and had a few flights to a few European Cities. It has mostly turboprop planes. The booking on line was extremely easy and the notifications and getting the seat and boarding card efficient. The ground personnel and the flight crews were efficient and personal. Overall a very good flight. It is expensive since a couple of airlines have a monopoly of domestic flights.

Sandefjord/Torp to Copenhagen in Flex class, April 8, 2017. Overall, a pleasant experience with this airline. Check-in was swift and efficient, and the boarding process was organized. There was no lounge at the departure airport, but the terminal was quiet anyway and there would be a meal on the plane. Besides, it was possible to purchase food at one of the cafeterias (I didn't). The aircraft was a Dash 8 Q400, registration LN-WDE. I was surprised to see that despite the aircraft being built in 2007 (long after smoking was banned on flights), the seats were equipped with ashtrays. That being said, the seat was comfortable, legroom was decent (I sat at a bulkhead seat), and the aircraft was in good condition. The flight departed on-time. As I was traveling in Flex class, I was served a complimentary brunch. It consisted of two open-faced sandwiches (one with salmon, the other with pastrami), and a fruit salad (melon & grapes). It was tasty, perfect for a 1h long flight, and significantly more substantial than the snacks served by partner SAS in their "Plus" cabin on late morning flights like this one. The crew (two females in their 40s or early 50s) weren't the friendliest, but they were professional and did their job correctly. All in all, it was a pleasant experience with Widerøe. I would recommend them over SAS or Norwegian Air Shuttle.

Wideroe is like a small SAS or Braathen SAFE from its glorie days. I still trust SAS completely. Widerøe is just even better.

Widerøe is expensive, but they are also mostly the only airlines that fly on many domestic routes in Norway. I traveled for business so everything was paid. The airplanes are small and are empty a lot of times, but watch out certain times it actually sold out on times like friday and sunday evening. Boarding goes really quickly compared to other airlines because the airplanes are so small and you just walk a shot distance to the airplane.
