TRIP REPORT | Widerøe Dash 8-Q400 | BGO-AES | WF454

If you are traveling domestically in Norway, chances are that you may be flying with Widerøe - a regional airline flying to virtually every corner of Norway, with a fleet of nearly 50 aircraft. Join me as I fly with them today from Bergen to the city of Ålesund.

Overall, the flight was absolutely fine. Although boarding started 15 minutes late, we still landed more than 10 minutes ahead of schedule. Also, I was surprised to see that they offered an inflight service, considering we were in the air for as little as 31 minutes. The crew were OK as well; friendly enough, though not outstanding. But then again, you can only do so much to create a lasting impression on such a short domestic flight.

Without further ado - sit back, relax, and enjoy the video!
