A flight operated by Norwegian airline Widerøe, flight number WF910, had to make an emergency landing at Hammerfest Airport on Sunday. The DHC Dash 8-100, registered as LN-WIP, was en route from Tromsø to Honningsvåg when a crack was discovered in the cockpit windshield.

There were 21 passengers and three crew members on board. The crew initiated an emergency landing according to standard procedures. Widerøe's press contact, Satha Sritharan, confirmed the incident and stated that passengers have been fully informed. A replacement aircraft will continue to transport passengers to Honningsvåg while the damaged aircraft undergoes a technical inspection.
