If you're planning a trip to Lofoten, you might like to fly into Svolvær and out of Leknes - or vice versa. This will give you the chance to start at one end of the islands and finish your trip at the other end. Sometimes flights to and from these smaller airports can be more pricey than an arrival or departure from the Harstad / Narvik Airport, which is 2 hours 25 min away from Svolvær and 3 hours and 30 minutes from Leknes. You can often find direct flights to and from Oslo when traveling to Harstad / Narvik rather than flying in and out of Svolvær and Leknes, which requires a short stop over in Bodø. It depends on your travel itinerary, but it's worth looking into options at all 3 airports before booking airfare.
