Common Complaints

Limited Commercial Amenities: As a specialized airfield, it lacks the broad range of amenities typically found in larger commercial airports (e.g., diverse retail, multiple dining options, extensive public transportation links).
Customs Availability: While designated an Airport of Entry with customs available, it's noted that a 1-hour Prior Notification Required (PNR) is necessary, suggesting customs services are on-demand rather than continuously staffed. One source also indicated "CUSTOMS AVAILABLE: No" in a general overview section, which might reflect the on-demand nature.
Restricted Operating Hours: The airport has specific operating hours, generally Monday-Friday 06:30-02:00L and Saturday-Sunday 07:00-19:00L, and the control tower operates Monday-Friday 08:30-16:00L, which may not suit all operational schedules.

Herning Airfield (EKHG) excels in providing a highly specialized and efficient experience for its niche clientele of business travelers and air sports enthusiasts. While it does not cater to mass commercial passenger traffic, it offers dedicated services and facilities that are highly valued by its users, prioritizing speed, personalized handling, and a strong focus on air sports activities.
