United ticket prices for Star Alliance airline flights are as low as $436 out of New York, $536 from LAX to Arctic and coastal airports in Norway for spring 2018 travel departures. The month of May also happens to the lowest rainfall month for coastal Norway.
I found low cost flights from New York, Washington D.C., Boston, Chicago, Miami, Los Angeles and San Francisco. There are probably several other cities with discount ticket prices to Norway.
The real deal here is these prices are only $20 to $40 more than flying to Oslo or Stockholm, so represent as much as a $200 savings on intra-Norway ticket prices to these cities from Oslo.
Norwegian citie like Alta ALF, Tromso TOS and Narvik EVE are above the Arctic Circle and clock in 19 to 20 hours of sunlight by the first week of May.
Alta, Norway reaches 24 hour sun on May 16 and Tromso hits 24 hour sunlight May 18.
Bodo BOO is a good airport for ferry departures to Lofoten Islands. Alesund AES and Bergen BGO are coastal cruise port cities.
