Tips for travellers
Before traveling to Oslo
- no need for vaccinations or cash
- much need for checking the weather forecast and packing all-weather clothes - there might be snow!
- Norway follows EU regulations wrt mobile phone roaming
- Install the "Ruter" app for public transport tickets: https://ruter.no/en/om-vare-billetter/buy-tickets-here
- Uber and Bolt operate in Oslo, but typically not worth it - taxi is generally expensive
Travel to Oslo
- Probably arrive by plane at Oslo International Airport (OSL) "Gardermoen"
- Probably worth getting a week-ticket (in the Ruter app) for Zone 1 (~35 EUR)
- Take regular regional train to Oslo S (central station) - RE10, RE11, or R12, typically form track 4
- Buy a one-trip extension for Zone 4N to your week-ticket in the Ruter app
- More expensive, but not necessarily more convenient alternatives:
- Take the one of the busses (check lines and buy ticket at https://flybussen.no)
- Take the flytoget express train to Oslo S
- From Oslo S, public transport is likely to get you close to your hotel
Getting around Oslo
- Ruter ticket includes subway (T-bane == tunnel-bane), tram (trikk), bus, and ferries
- It's generally safe to walk, and many things are in walking distance. But ^^ about weather.
- tban lines 4 and 5 go to Nydalen (Qt offices)
- tban lines go to Majorstuen (reMarkable offices)
- the Ruter app will show you travel options from where you are to where you want to be
Hotels
(others have booked, or are known to be decent; price level will vary over time)
- Thon Hotel Storo - close to the Qt office for Qt WS and hacking day
- Radisson BLU Nydalen - also close to the Qt office
- Thon Hotel Gyldenløve - close to the reMarkable offices (Qt CS days)
- Comfort Hotel Xpress Youngstorget
- Smarthotel
- Thon Rosenkrantz
Leaving Oslo
- figure out how to get to Oslo S, then see "Travel to Oslo"
Planning
This page is mostly interesting for people helping with the event organisation.
