Communications manager Guri Varpe at the Castle informs NTB. The palace announced just after 10 o’clock that the king’s flight from Oslo Airport was cancelled. A little over half an hour later, it is confirmed that the visit has been cancelled. The king was going to Melhus and Skaun. Visits to Drive Norge and Bautaen cultural center were on the program. HM K has never previously visited Skaun municipality, which is one of the few municipalities in Trøndelag that has not been visited by the king. Just after 10 o’clock on Tuesday, Avinor’s overview shows that 35 flights have been cancelled. A number of others are exposed. – It is heavy and wet snow. The planes have to go through deicing, and the runways have to be plowed. We have reduced the plowing crew because we are in the summer half-year. We are working to increase staffing and have all resources out, said press officer Helene W. Jensen in Avinor to NTB earlier on Tuesday.
