Not many people realize, but Longyearbyen is very accessible during the season. There is a fully operational airport only a few miles out that services multiple passenger flights in and out daily. I came by to visit a few years ago and the flight between OSL to LYR came around about 70 euros, albeit I think I had a student discount. I was more surprised there was not more tourist activity, given the novelty.
