About Kjøllefjord Airport

Kjøllefjord Airfield is a disused general aviation airport (airfield) located at Kjøllefjord in Lebesby Municipality in Finnmark county, Norway. It consisted of a 630-by-40-meter gravel runway and a simple small building as a terminal. Plans for an airport in Kjøllefjord were first launched in the mid-1960s. The Norving airline was the main proponent as they intended to operate an air taxi and air ambulance service. Construction started in 1973 and the airport opened in 1974. In that same year, another nearby airport opened; the larger Mehamn Airport is only 30 kilometers away and Kjøllefjord therefore was little used. It was abandoned in the 1980s.
