Keflavik International Airport

Keflavik International Airport is Iceland’s principal international gateway, located approximately 50 km southwest of Reykjavik city centre on the Reykjanes Peninsula. It is the primary arrival point for private jet charter clients travelling to the capital, offering full FBO facilities, dedicated private aviation handling, and accelerated customs and immigration processing. The airport’s coastal location on the lava plain creates a dramatic first impression entirely in keeping with the Icelandic landscape that awaits.

The airport accommodates all aircraft categories, from light jets to wide-body long-range aircraft, making it suitable for transatlantic arrivals.
