خلفية ثقافية
Punctuality is a sign of respect. Arriving 'i god tid' is expected in professional settings and highly appreciated in social ones. Similar to Sweden, Finns value punctuality immensely. 'I god tid' (or 'hyvissä ajoin' in Finnish) is the norm for all appointments. Norwegians also prioritize being 'ute i god tid', especially when heading to the mountains or catching ferries. While slightly more relaxed than Swedes, Danes still prefer 'i god tid' for formal events and travel.
The 15-Minute Rule
In Sweden, 'i god tid' usually implies a buffer of about 15 minutes. Use this as your mental guide.
Don't be TOO early
Arriving 45 minutes early to a private dinner is not 'i god tid', it's 'obekvämt' (uncomfortable) for the host!
