Flights to Oslo

When the time comes for a trip to Norway's capital, flights to Oslo are almost always the best way to travel. There are daily direct connections between New York and Gardermoen Airport, and with flight times under seven and a half hours, it's usually a manageable journey. Even better, upon arrival visitors can transfer to central Oslo in minutes, thanks to the city's superb public transit system.

Which is the main airport in Oslo?

Virtually all planes to Oslo will touch down at Oslo Gardermoen Airport. Gardermoen is around 30 miles out of town, but getting to downtown Oslo shouldn't pose many problems. Transfers via the Flytoget train service take around 20 minutes, while affordable Flybussen services take about 40 minutes in most cases.

Which airlines offer flights to Oslo?

Direct flights from North America to Oslo are provided by Norwegian, which runs a direct service between New York JFK and Oslo Gardermoen. Those coming from other locations can fly with a single change, which could be in New York, London, Paris, or Manchester. In that case, companies include Flyest Lineas Aereas, SAS, and Condor.

Why travel by plane to Oslo?

If travelers are commencing their journeys to Norway from across the Atlantic, flying to Oslo is almost certainly the only way to travel. The Norwegian capital is well connected to North America via direct and indirect flights, with a journey time that won't be too exhausting. Flights leave every day throughout the year. Flights also work well for those coming from regional cities. If travelers need services from the UK, Sweden, Germany, or the Netherlands, ferries and trains may be available, but they will never be as quick as taking a flight.

Before you travel to Oslo by plane - good to know!

Oslo has a superb public transportation system, so visitors should become acquainted with its trams, buses, and Metro trains before embarking. When navigating the city, it's handy to get hold of a Ruter travel card, which works across all forms of public transit. They can be purchased at roadside kiosks or stations. With that in hand, it's time to explore. The outlandish wooden architecture at the Museum of Cultural History always impresses, and the Munch Museum is an artistic feast. For an original experience, why not head out of town to Oscarsborg fortress, or visit the ancient monastery on Hovedøya in Oslo Fjord?
