No. I think a Herc goes in there once every 6 months to resupply the Norwegian military / weather station that is based there. (I know people who were based there in the Noggie military).

It wil probably be an uphill struggle as it seems to be a military airport. The runway looks decent enough.
The FotoNord company apparently landed a Piper Navajo there in June 2005. So it's not impossible.

Thanks for all of that, difficult is okay - impossible takes a little longer.
I'll post back here once I have some more info - but it looks like a great place to visit if you like 'out of the way'.
Fly safe, Sam.

I share your interest in these odd destinations. So I Googled it some more and found this 2010 expedition report.
Jan Mayen Arctic Expedition 2010
They used a Twin Otter out of Iceland operated by Norlandair. Contacting them would probably be the quickest way to get some info.
