Schengen/Schengen transfer at OSL

Hi all, looking for some advice please;

This isn’t strictly a BA question, but it does involve Sunair and I think the knowledgeable folks on this board are the best people to ask.

I have a 90min transfer at OSL from a Sunair flight from BLL to a Norwegian flight to AMS. I will be HBO.
I understand that the best way to make the transfer is by using the transfer point at gates 42/43 to get down to the departures level of the Schengen area.

My question is what happens if I get a bus stand? Where are passengers dropped from the bus, and is it possible to use this connection point from a bus stand?

Thanks in advance

Yes it is, the bus stand places you right by that transfer point. No security if Schengen to Schengen, so it's a piece of cake. It's all clearly signposted. On my last BLL-OSL service I was given a bus transfer - this was about September.

Thank you very much CWS!

It will take you 5 minutes. Piece of cake indeed.

Just curious, do you travel BLL-OSL-AMS, and why?

It is not exactly a sensible route, and is part of an even less sensible itinerary . I am going to AMS anyway, and as I have never been on a Dornier, decided to try out Sunair.

90 min is plenty of time for a transfer at OSL regardless how you make it (bus, Schengen/Schengen or landside->airside). Dont worry!

I'll be doing a Schengen-Schengen transfer at OSL in March. Flying LIS-OSL-CPH (an award ticket). The gate 42/43 procedure seems quite straightforward, but as I'm arriving into OSL after midnight I was wondering what the opening hours are for this facility.
