All flights depart as normal at the airports in Oslo and Bergen, so it looks bright for everyone who takes the air route home for Christmas.  There are also no canceled departures from V\u00e6rnes in Tr\u00f8ndelag, Bod\u00f8 and Stavanger Airport.  There is a canceled departure from Troms\u00f8.  &#8211; Turn up when the airline asks you to, there is probably no need to come particularly early, says L\u00f8wer.  Norwegian air traffic is expected to be 20% below the peak day for Christmas departures in 2019. That year, the peak day was 20 December Gardermoen: Is the place for farewell and reunion today.

You can leave the keys in your jacket pocket and send the whole jacket through the control.  But there is one thing he does not want to see in the security check.  &#8211; Do not bring wrapped Christmas presents as hand luggage, says L\u00f8wer.  If you have not packed it yourself, you may be asked to unpack it.  Even though there are a few days until Christmas Eve.  If you are lucky enough to have received something that is not allowed on the plane, you may have to face Christmas without a gift.  Several mountain crossings are open If you take your car over the mountain for Christmas, you may have already found the tip for the &#8220;hero of the winter road&#8221;, car hauler Bj\u00f8rn L\u00e6greid.  &#8211; With low winter sun, you have to be prepared that it can be slippery in the afternoon.  There are also big local differences, says traffic operator Ronny Sleire.  Apart from a few accidents, winter traffic flows well, says Arvid Wahlstr\u00f8m, traffic operator at the Norwegian Public Roads Administration.  &#8211; So far, it seems to be going well in the morning hours, he says.  Only two mountain passes are closed due to bad weather.  County road 63 between Geiranger and Langvatn and county road 520 between Hellandsbygd and Breigborg in Rogaland.  Wahlstr\u00f8m hopes that everyone behind the wheel on the way home for Christmas is good at looking after each other.  Train traffic should go well Despite a period of many delays, there are many people who want to take the train home for Christmas.  &#8211; There is no problem on the railway network, of course we cannot guarantee that there won&#8217;t be unexpected incidents, but we do everything we can to ensure that trains run as normal, says Gunnar B\u00f8rseth, press officer at BaneNOR.  The train companies GoAhead, SJNord and Vy all report that one or more departures are full today.  &#8211; Most seats are sold on Bergensbanen today and tomorrow, says Vy&#8217;s communications manager, \u00c5ge-Christoffer Lundeby.  Be out in good time and pack smart is the tip from Lundeby.  Oslo bus station: Emal Shinwari and Ajmal Shinwari travel to Kristiansand to celebrate Christmas.  &#8211; We are most looking forward to food and gifts, they say.
