Check-in

Check in online, free

Check in from your phone or computer and your boarding pass arrives by email as a PDF, or by text message as a link to the pass on the Manage booking page, and in the Northly app once it launches. A new copy is always free.

Flights to and from the UK

London Gatwick and Edinburgh are outside the Schengen area. Before you can check in online for those flights, add each passenger's passport or national identity card details: number, nationality, expiry and date of birth. You do this in the chat or with a colleague, confirmed with a one-time code. We show the number back masked, never in full, and delete it 30 days after the flight.

If the details are missing, the airport desk checks your document and the desk fee is waived. On Schengen routes we collect no document data before travel; bring a valid passport or identity card all the same.

Check-in closes 2 hours before departure and the gate 30 minutes before. If you miss the flight, the airport desk can rebook you on the next flight on the same route within 1 hour after departure for NOK 1 149 (EUR 100) plus any fare difference, if it has seats.
