Lofoten with Flyness: incentive travel that unites teams

How does an incentive trip become a catalyst for corporate culture?

For many companies, the goal of incentive travel isn’t merely to reward employees but to create an experience that strengthens leadership, cohesion, and a shared identity. What if all this could happen beyond the Arctic Circle?

With its sculpted fjords, Northern Lights, and rarified atmosphere, the Lofoten archipelago is the perfect setting for incentive travel that leaves a lasting impact. But the real differentiator lies in how you get there: with a dedicated charter flight, the journey itself becomes part of the experience, not just a transfer.

Picture your team touching down beneath a cobalt sky, welcomed by rejuvenating silence and rorbu cabins glowing like lanterns along the coast. That’s how an adventure begins: merging sustainability, Nordic design, and symbolic activities with high engagement.

Welcome to the North, the region that resonates with business. Welcome to the Lofoten Islands with Flyness.

The Arctic atmosphere of the Lofoten Islands feels lifted straight from a fairy tale.

Those arriving here are met with granite spires plunging into emerald bays, and a grazing light that sculpts every fjord, so striking that even local operators describe the archipelago as “the stuff of fairytales”. This hypnotic landscape already boasts a powerful wow factor that impresses a message of vision and courage into corporate memory.

Highlights:

• Arctic panoramas and dramatic fjords
• Northern Lights or the Midnight Sun
• Scandinavian sustainability values
• Incentive destination with design cabins (rorbuer)

From RIB boat rides among the peaks of Trollfjorden to Viking feasts in reconstructed longhouses, private dinners in former cod factories, or sea eagle safaris, incentive travel and team building in the Lofoten Islands offer tailor-made activities that combine photography tours, panoramic hikes, and gourmet tastings in exclusive lodges: the best of Lofoten team building.

Here, activities are never filler: they are the concrete embodiment of your brand’s values.

Between September and mid-April, the night sky ignites in green and violet waves, gifting your team an unforgettable experience no year-end bonus can match. Prefer endless daylight? Opt for the midnight sun from late May to July, transforming every break into an informal meeting with a 24-hour view.

The Lofoten Islands are part of Norway’s Sustainable Destination program, a measurable commitment to reducing the tourism impact while supporting the local economy and communities.

For companies reporting on green KPIs, the archipelago offers solid credentials:

• Leave No Trace policies
• Low-impact activities like electric kayaking or hiking
• Optimised charter flights with no unnecessary stopovers

The historic fishermen’s cabins (rorbuer) have been restored using local wood, featuring large windows overlooking the fjord and minimalist Nordic interiors. These spaces are ideal for evening workshops or fireside storytelling while still offering private boutique rooms.

The result is a blend of local identity and premium standards that makes accommodation an integral part of the motivational experience.

In short, the Lofoten Islands offer stunning scenery, high-engagement activities, proven sustainability, and warm hospitality: the ultimate package for incentive travel that genuinely enhances team culture and cohesion.

Reaching an archipelago beyond the Arctic Circle doesn’t have to mean multiple connections and exhausting layovers. With a dedicated charter flight, you can fly directly to your destination, transforming the journey into an “Arctic prologue” that sets the mood before the first fjord comes into view.

A Flyness charter flight to the Lofoten Islands becomes part of your storytelling.

Main Gateway:

• Harstad/Narvik – Evenes (EVE)
  A 2,812m runway ready to welcome Boeing 737s or A320s. Depart from Milan in the morning and arrive about 3h50 later—no connections, no wasted energy before your incentive.

For smaller groups or itineraries aiming to land in the heart of the archipelago, choose:

• Leknes (LKN): just steps from the white beaches of Haukland.
• Svolvær (SVJ): where Embraer or ATR turboprops land within 10 minutes of the harbour.

Before even setting foot in the archipelago, your flight choice defines the group’s energy.
Scheduled routes are something to endure. A charter flight is already part of the story.

When planning incentive travel to Norway, direct routes eliminate stress and enhance engagement.

• Complex itineraries (Milan → Oslo → Bodø → Evenes) with 1–2 obligatory layovers
• Fixed schedules: depart at dawn, arrive at night, team energy depleted
• Hidden costs: special luggage fees, last-minute changes, standard catering

• Direct route to Evenes, scenic transfer, and check-in before dinner
• Timetable tailored to your agenda: arrive in time for your first team-building session
• Total branding: logo on headrests, pre-selected menus, welcome briefing, and customised onboard messages
• Optimised emissions: shorter routes, CO₂ reports, and offset included

Result: shorter travel time and a team that arrives motivated, not exhausted.
The difference between a transfer and an experience.
