Where do I find the bus at Haugesund Airport?

The bus stops are located outside of the main terminal building at Haugesund Airport. Follow the signs for Ground Transportation, then look for the Flybussen logo.

Convenience

As the Flybussen bus only leaves twice a day, it’s not a very convenient transfer option. The cost of two passengers taking the bus is the same price as a private taxi, so the bus is not a cheaper alternative. Given the need to walk to the bus stop, wait for the bus, carry luggage onto the bus, and purchase tickets, this is a surprisingly inconvenient option for the price. Also, keep in mind navigating from the bus stop in the city to your final destination.

For a completely private, direct door-to-door service, you can book a ride with Welcome Pickups at a competitive rate.
