Mosjoen Airport, Kjaerstad (IATA: MJF,
ICAO: ENMS) (Norwegian: Mosjoen lufthavn,
Kjaerstad) is a regional airport serving Mosjoen in Nordland, Norway.
In 2007 Mosjoen Airport had 76,294 passengers. It is owned and operated
by the state owned Avinor.
Service
The airport is served by Wideroe with Dash 8 aircraft connecting the
community to Bodo and Trondheim. The routes are operated on public service
obligation with the Norwegian Ministry of Transport and Communications.
History
The airport was opened in 1987 as part of the last group of regional
airports to be built in Norway.
In 2002 the Ministry of Transport launched an idea of merging the three
airports serving Northern Helgeland, Mosjoen Airport, Sandnessjoen Airport
and Mo i Rana Airport into a new airport at Drevjadalen in Vefsn, 15 km
north of Mosjoen city (55 km from Sandnessjoen, 70 from Mo i Rana). But
meteorological tests performed by Avinor showed that the area had too
much fog to serve as an airport. The idea was to build one new airport
with a large enough runway to take down Airbus A320/Boeing 737 aircraft
directly from Oslo, and make it unnecessary to operate subsidied regional
aircraft to Helgeland. The road tunnel Korgfjelltunnelen opened in 2005
created a reliable and fast road between Mosjoen and Mo i Rana (it's not
nice to have an often blocked road between an airport and the largest
city it serves). A better road to Sandnessjoen is planned and is needed.
As of 2007 the idea of a new airport is abandoned by both Avinor and the
Ministry of Transport.
