What ALC to OSL looks like
The ALC to OSL sector, the carriers on it and the flying time, before anything is promised to anybody.
Alicante ALC to Oslo OSL is a medium haul sector of 2,570 km by great circle, flown nonstop 4 times a day.
At the cruise speed this site models for 2,570 km, 830 km an hour, and thirty minutes of taxi at the two ends, the flight blocks at about 3h 47m.
Alicante ALC is a large airport in the network held here, 145 scheduled destinations and 231.5 departures a day. Oslo OSL has 146 destinations and 378.2 departures a day.
Alicante and Oslo keep the same clock all year, so the arrival time is the departure time plus the block and nothing else.
The pair sits inside Europe, a corridor where the site already publishes 14 written lanes that go into customs and ground detail this page does not.
Who flies the sector, and how often
Average daily frequencies on ALC to OSL from the scheduled route statistics, both directions, with the operating carriers named.
| Direction | Flights a day | Flights a week | Operated by |
|---|---|---|---|
| ALC to OSL | 4 | 28 | Norwegian Air Shuttle, SAS |
| OSL to ALC | 4 | 28 | Norwegian Air Shuttle, SAS |
Two carriers hold the sector, Norwegian Air Shuttle and SAS, which gives a missed departure somewhere to go without leaving the nonstop.
At 4 times a day there is usually another departure within a few hours, which is what makes a same day booking on this pair realistic.
Between them the two directions put about 56 departures a week on ALC to OSL, which is the number that decides whether a seat can be found today or on Thursday.
The clock from collection to signature
The same ground timings the route calculator starts from, applied to the 3h 47m block time on ALC to OSL. Change any of them in the tool further down and the total moves with them.
| Stage | Allowed | Elapsed |
|---|---|---|
| Collection and the run to ALC | 90 min | 1h 30m |
| At ALC before departure | 180 min | 4h 30m |
| ALC to OSL in the air, estimated | 227 min | 8h 17m |
| Formalities at OSL | 90 min | 9h 47m |
| Delivery run in Oslo | 45 min | 10h 32m |
| Door to door | 632 min | 10h 32m |
On the desk standard ground timings, ninety minutes to collect and reach the airport, three hours at the airport before departure, ninety minutes of arrival formalities and a forty five minute delivery run, the door to door figure for ALC to OSL is 10h 32m.
A courier who leaves Alicante at 09:00 local is on the ground in Oslo at about 12:47 local and at the door by 15:02 the same day.
Working backwards from a six in the evening handover in Oslo, the last useful departure from Alicante is around 11:58 local.
When the nonstop does not work
Every airport that joins the two ends, ranked by when they land, among the ones whose weaker leg is dependable enough to plan on. Connection time is allowed for the size of the hub. 63 of them join ALC to OSL.
| Connecting at | ALC to hub, flights a day | Hub to OSL, flights a day | Track, km | Estimated, gate to gate |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Eindhoven EIN | 3 | 0.71 | 2,571 | 5h 17m |
| Stavanger SVG | 0.71 | 22.14 | 2,674 | 5h 29m |
| Brussels BRU | 8 | 3.71 | 2,571 | 5h 32m |
| Dusseldorf DUS | 1.57 | 1.29 | 2,582 | 5h 33m |
| Geneva GVA | 1.29 | 0.57 | 2,626 | 5h 37m |
| Bergen BGO | 1.43 | 24.43 | 2,806 | 5h 39m |
With 4 times a day on the nonstop, a connection here is a disruption plan rather than a routing, and it is listed because a closed runway or a cancellation wave is exactly when nobody has time to work it out.
63 airports connect the two ends on the scheduled network held here. The quickest of the dependable ones is Eindhoven EIN, where the weaker of the two legs still runs 5 times a week.
Through EIN the routing covers 2,571 km against the 2,570 km nonstop track and takes about 5h 17m in the air and on the ground at the hub, allowing 60 minutes to connect at an airport of that size.
That is only 1h 30m more than the nonstop, which is close enough that a connection is worth taking when the nonstop is full or badly timed.
Behind it, Stavanger SVG at 5h 29m and Brussels BRU at 5h 32m hold the same connection, so a booking has three hubs to try before it has to wait for the nonstop.
If nothing suitable leaves Alicante, Valencia VLC is 134 km away by great circle and carries 101 scheduled destinations of its own, which is usually a shorter road transfer than a lost day.

Where this came from, and where to look next
- Carriers and frequencies: AeroDataBox scheduled route statistics, retrieved 2026-09-07. Average daily flights, not a timetable.
- Distances: great circle from published coordinates. They read short against a flown track, which is why the block time above applies a factor to them.
- Block and connection times: the same model the route calculator lower down this page runs, at the same rounding.
- Restrictions: the airport notes file, checked 2026-09-07.
- Industrial sites: public company information. Nothing here says or implies that any company named is a customer of any courier operator.
Who publishes this. OnBoard Courier is a placement desk in Dubai. An assignment is carried out by a vetted partner operator, with the desk as the single point of contact from the quote to the signature. This page exists because our own dispatchers need the answer for ALC to OSL in the twenty minutes before a promise is made, and a reference only one operator can read is not a reference. Free to read, quote and cite. Found an error? Tell us and we will correct it.
If you need something moved rather than looked up, the desk prices a hand carry in fifteen minutes.
