Oslo Airport is on the verge of a significant transformation in its food and beverage services, promising to greatly enhance the passenger experience. This revamp, spearheaded by Avinor’s Commercial Director, Joachim Lupnaav Johnsen, aims to introduce new dining concepts while expanding on existing favorites. The changes are expected to positively impact travelers’ satisfaction and contribute to the airport’s overall appeal.
To cater to passengers seeking quick meals, several new venues specializing in “Grab & Go” solutions will be introduced, enhancing accessibility and convenience. The revamp includes maintaining popular existing venues like Burger King, Peppes Pizza, Joe & The Juice, Northland, Ritazza, Two Tigers, and Starbucks.
New additions include Trattoria Tavolare Dom., Kaffetår, PIQ*NIQ, Journey – Kitchen & Bar, and Crafts – Oslo’s Gastropub. In the international terminal, travelers will find Tigerstaden Wine Bar and other new outlets like Trattoria Tavolare Int., Bjørns Backyard, Asia Street Cooking Ltd., Barino, and Mel Norwegian Bakery.
The expansion includes extending O’Learys Sports and Gastrobar to the domestic terminal and increasing the presence of Bit Union and LETT. This strategic enlargement is driven by the aim to meet the growing demand for diverse and healthy meal options at the airport. Additionally, new dining options like Parken are being established in both the non-Schengen area and the departure hall, enhancing the variety of choices available to international travelers.
Joachim Lupnaav Johnsen is optimistic about the commercial impacts of the updated food and beverage offerings. The expectation is that these changes will not only satisfy current passenger demands but also attract new visitors to the airport, bolstering its commercial success.
The enhancements at Oslo Airport are poised to have significant global implications for airline travelers. This extensive revamp of the food and beverage offerings, representing an investment of approximately 6.5 billion Norwegian kroner, marks a strategic move to elevate the travel experience. By catering to varied tastes and preferences and integrating convenient dining solutions, this initiative is set to not only enhance the comfort of travelers but also to support the airport’s growth and relevance in the increasingly competitive international travel industry.
