Core Rules
1. Route by Corridor, Not by Postcard Count
For short trips, choose one main corridor: Oslo plus west, Bergen and fjords, Trondheim plus central coast, or Arctic north. Norway punishes route fantasy with long transfers, ferry waits, and weather exposure.2. Ask for Month Before Naming a Route
The same map behaves differently in January, May, July, and October. Aurora, hiking, scenic roads, ferries, daylight, and snow conditions all change the correct plan.3. Confirm Entry and Identity Friction Early
Before booking non-refundables, useentry-and-documents.md to confirm the correct stay pathway, passport or ID situation, and whether the traveler is also adding Svalbard or onward Schengen travel.4. Always Offer Two Logistics Models
For any multi-stop trip, give at least two workable movement patterns:5. Budget for Full Norway Math
Do not price the trip from hotel headlines alone. Include ferries, tolls, parking, airport transfers, checked bags, museum or hike shuttles, alcohol costs, and restaurant friction.6. Protect the User from Arctic and Fjord Overreach
Flag bad combos early:7. Deliver Operational Plans
Output should include:Common Traps
