Airports in Iceland

Small but beautiful Iceland may seem expensive for the average traveler, but those who decide to fly here are guaranteed an extraordinary enjoyment of rare beauty landscapes and unique natural phenomena. There are no direct flights to Icelandic airports from Moscow so far in the schedule of any airline, but with connections in Stockholm, Oslo or Helsinki, you can get here on the wings of several Scandinavian air carriers. The second way is to fly through St. Petersburg on Island Air planes. You will have to spend up to 4 hours in the sky, excluding connections..

Iceland International Airports

  • The main center of international air transportation in the country is Iceland's Reykjavik-Keflavik airport.
  • The second air harbor, whose runway is capable of receiving and sending international flights, is Akureyri Airport in northern Iceland. The city where the airport is located and the airfield are separated by only 3 km, and the last reconstruction of the air harbor was carried out in 2009. Boards from the capital of the country land several times a day in Akureyri, and international flights are presented in the schedule by planes from Copenhagen and London. The airport is of interest to tourists wishing to travel to the natural attractions of northern Iceland - waterfalls and the island of Grimsey, located above the Arctic Circle. Details about the schedule and operation of the air harbor on the website - www.isavia.is/english/airports/akureyri-international-airport.

Metropolitan direction

Reykjavik Airport is often used as a connecting and refueling point for a certain class of aircraft on transatlantic routes. Its runways allow it to do so without interference. Built during the Second World War, Iceland's capital airport has become today one of the most important in Europe.
Regular flights from Reykjavik are operated by Icelandair to dozens of cities around the world, including Amsterdam, Brussels, Helsinki, New York, Paris, Washington, Zurich, Munich, Oslo, Glasgow and Frankfurt. Seasonal flights are operated by Wizz Air, Lufthansa, EasyJet, Delta Air Lines, Austrian Airlines. In summer, Icelandic citizens can take advantage of charter flights and relax at sea in Slovenia, Turkey, Italy and Spain.
The 50 kilometers separating the air gate from the capital can be covered by public transport. Taxi transfers are very expensive. The schedule of buses delivering passengers to the city bus station is tied to the schedule of arriving and departing flights. Travel time from city to airport is about 45 minutes.
