Akureyri Airport
Akureyri Airport
Akureyri Airport is conveniently located just 3km from the centre of the largest town in the north of Iceland. Passengers can transfer at Keflavik International Airport to direct flights to Akureyri linking in with arriving and departing services to and from Europe and the USA.
Domestic flights depart from Akureyri for the Arctic Circle island of Grimsey and sightseeing flights cover the main sights of the north and uninhabited interior, including Jökulsá Canyon, Askja, Holuhraun and Vatnajökull.
The airport's surroundings are buzzing with a different kind of flight - the area is an important breeding ground for waterfowl and wading birds. Bring binoculars and enjoy a stroll along the network of paths through the wetlands.
