What Is FastTrack Security?
FastTrack Security is a dedicated, pre-bookable security lane available at participating airports worldwide. It allows all passengers — regardless of airline or ticket class — to bypass the standard security queue and pass through a separate, less crowded checkpoint.
By booking FastTrack in advance, you secure a spot in a priority lane that typically has significantly shorter wait times than the regular queue. This means less time standing in line and more time enjoying the terminal, shopping, or simply relaxing before your flight.
FastTrack Security is available to everyone — families, solo travellers, business passengers, and leisure flyers alike. There are no membership requirements or loyalty programme tiers needed to access the service.
What FastTrack Is Not
- Not airport lounge access — FastTrack only covers the security screening process
- Not priority boarding — your boarding process remains as per your airline's policy
- Not immigration fast-track — passport control and border checks are separate from security screening
Airport Overview
About Oslo Airport, Gardermoen
Oslo Airport, Gardermoen (OSL) is Norway’s primary international gateway, located about 35 km north-east of central Oslo. It handles a mix of domestic and international services, including frequent short-haul flights across Europe and regular long-haul connections. The airport is operated by Avinor and is designed around a single central terminal with several piers (A–E) handling gates for both Schengen and non‑Schengen flights.
The passenger terminal is compact and efficient with two main departure levels and interconnected piers. Ground transport links are strong: the Flytoget airport express train connects to Oslo Central Station in about 19 minutes, Vy regional trains also serve the airport, and multiple coach and local bus services provide lower-cost options. Taxis and car hire are available directly outside the terminal. Shopping and dining options are concentrated in the main departures hall and piers; duty free is available airside for departing passengers on applicable routes.
Security Information
Security screening at OSL follows standard EU and Norwegian rules. All departing passengers must pass through security control with carry-on baggage scanned and walk-through metal detectors used for passengers. Liquids in hand luggage must be in containers of 100 ml or less and fit inside a single transparent resealable bag. Laptops and large electronics should be removed from bags and placed in separate trays. For non‑Schengen departures you will also pass passport control; passport checks for arrivals from non‑Schengen countries occur in the arrivals hall. Staff operate additional checks for restricted items and occasional random screening.
Most security checkpoints at Gardermoen open according to the flight schedule; there is no single 24/7 staffed lane independent of flights. FastTrack lanes, when available, are positioned to the side of the main security hall to reduce queuing time for passengers who have purchased priority access.

Local tip: take the Flytoget (airport express train) from Oslo Central Station for the quickest link (around 19 minutes). If you’re catching an early flight, pre-book FastTrack and aim to arrive at the airport at least 90 minutes before departure for short‑haul flights and 2½–3 hours for long‑haul.
