Common pitfalls
Do not exceed your pre-booked time
If you go beyond the pre-booked period, a new drop-in session automatically starts at full price – and the time you have already paid for is not refunded. Book with a margin.
The 7-minute limit is short
In Kiss & Fly the first 7 minutes are free; after that 55 kr per started 20 minutes applies. When parking exceeds two hours, the daily cap is 550 kr.
Use the correct level for charging
Avinor lists EV charging in P3 Long-term, floor 1. The normal parking charge applies.
Keep your payment confirmation
Travellers report app payments that fail, penalty charges despite paying, double charges and debt-collection notices arriving long afterwards. Take a screenshot of the payment. Appeals against a penalty charge go first to apcoa.no, then if needed to the Parking Complaints Board (pklagenemnda.no).
Pre-booking has separate terms
Pre-booking through Avinor has separate prices and terms. Check your date and entry/exit times before booking.
