This is the public-transport answer on any weekend and on most weekday buses: the 55 ends at Fjörður bus station and bus 1 continues from the same station to the centre in about 27 minutes.

The connection is timed — eight to eleven minutes at Fjörður on every trip — so the 84 minutes hold; the last 55 of the day (22:54) meets the 23:51 bus 1.

Two fares, not one: the ISK 1,800 provincial ticket does not cover the city bus. Tap a contactless card on bus 1 for the ISK 690 single, or use the Klapp app.

On a weekday at 06:27, 07:54, 14:54, 15:54 or 16:54 stay on the bus instead: it goes through to BSÍ for ISK 2,400 in 72 minutes.

From seven people this beats the Flybus: ISK 26,500 for the car against ISK 27,993 in coach fares. Four pay ISK 21,000 here against 15,996 on the coach.

The price holds when booked ahead. At the rank without a booking the meter runs, and the airport tells you to ask the price before the car moves.

ISK 1,990 less than Hreyfill's car and 3,240 less than its minibus for the same ride; BSR's figures are the older of the two lists.
