Getting from Reykjavik city center to Reykjavik airport

The fastest option is a private transfer or taxi, while budget travelers often choose the Flybus coach service.

Reykjavik is served by Keflavik International Airport (KEF), located approximately 50 km southwest of the city center. This is the main international gateway to Iceland, handling the vast majority of international flights. A domestic airport, Reykjavik City Airport (RKV), sits just 2 km from the city center and serves select domestic and Greenlandic routes. Whether you are heading to KEF for an international departure or RKV for a domestic connection, several transport options are available from central Reykjavik, including express coaches, taxis, private transfers, and rental cars. Journey times and costs vary depending on your chosen mode of transport and traffic conditions.
