What Happens if You’re Affected by Trondheim Vaernes Airport Delays?
Flight delays can be extremely frustrating and costly, especially if you have time-sensitive engagements waiting for you at your destination, such as a scheduled tour, event, or an important meeting.

If you’ve experienced delayed flights from Trondheim Vaernes Airport, the first thing that you need to remember is that the airline is actually required to provide food and refreshments while you wait. For longer delays, they should provide free accommodation, as well as transportation to and from your hotel.
