Transfer to/from the airports around Oslo
Oslo Airport Gardermoen (OSL) is 47km from the city centre and is the city’s main international airport.
The cheapest way to get from Oslo Airport to the city centre is by train. Lines R12, RE11, and RE10 take 23 minutes to connect the airport with Oslo S, the city's central station, with an intermediate stop at Lillestrøm.
Trains leave the airport at 3, 13 and 43 minutes past every hour from 5:13am and 11:43pm. The only drawback is that they are commuter trains and therefore have no space for luggage and at rush hour you will probably have to stand up.
Tickets cost 114 NOK (€11). Children up to 16 and over 65 pay half price. They can easily be bought from the ticket machines at the airport and Oslo Central Station.
The Flytoget Airport Express is the most comfortable way to get from Oslo airport to the city centre, this train goes directly to Oslo Central Station without any stops in between, and the carriages are perfectly adapted for luggage.
Train departs from Oslo Central Station and Oslo Airport every 10 minutes during the day and every 20 minutes early in the morning and late at night, on weekends and during school holidays. The journey takes about 19 minutes and the price is 210 NOK.
Flybussen Express Bus operates several routes between Oslo Airport, the city centre and the surrounding boroughs, most of them around the clock. Travel time to the city centre is 40-50 minutes. You can find departure times, routes and order tickets on Flybussen’s website.
