If Hong Kong elected, I suggest we should finish Hong Kong Intl (VHHH) and Kat Tak (VHXX) at same time.

Bergen might be better by the summer. Due to the latitude Bergen only have down to about 6 hours of daylight in the winter, but up to about 19 hours in the summer.[1][2]

There was a pre-selection of airports on another topic, this is ok, but because 1 month to vote at the next airport, which criteria were adopted to reach this number, 1 month is quite long for voting.

Fwiw, what is the usual length for voting like this?
