Meeting someone at Oslo Airport.
Oslo-Gardermoen International Airport (OSL · ENGM), Akershus, Norway. Which terminal, how long they'll take to come out, and a greeting board ready for the arrivals hall.
Greeting board for Oslo Airport
Make a sign for OSL Arrivals. Show it full screen, save it, or create a Greet so they can find you.
Which terminal
Oslo-Gardermoen International Airport has one passenger terminal, so everyone comes out into the same arrivals area. That makes meeting simpler, and busier when several flights land together. Agree one exact spot in the hall.
Where to wait
Put the exact spot in your Greet. Your guest sees it on their phone from the moment they land at OSL, even without signal.
- Inside the arrivals hall, a few metres back from the doors passengers come through.
- At one landmark you can both name: a numbered exit, a café sign or the information desk.
- Not right at the barrier, where everyone crowds and nobody can see past the first row.
Passport control and timing
Norway is in the Schengen area. Passengers on flights from other Schengen countries walk straight out with no passport check, often within 15 to 25 minutes. Flights from outside Schengen, including the UK, go through passport control first, which can add 20 to 60 minutes at busy times.
Oslo runs on Europe/Oslo time. The clock at the top of this page shows the local time now.
