Tromsø Airport is located approximately 5.5 km from the city of Tromsø. The airport opened in 1964, replacing Tromsø Skattøra Airport, a water aerodrome.
The airport has two terminals. Terminal A, opened in 1997, and Terminal B in 1977. Scheduled flights operate from Terminal A, while regional airlines operate from both terminals.

The airport's departure hall offers shops, a duty-free shop, food and beverage outlets and bars.
