It is easy to book either through the mobile App, or through the easy to navigate kiosks right at the train station. Only thing to note is that the trains are on the outside of the main central station on the back side. We had an early 5:00AM train, and the main train station building doors were not open which panicked us for a second until we saw others walking around the side to find the tracks on the back side where the Flytoget trains are parked including their offices and kiosks.

Here is a review comparing the express train from Oslo Airport to the city center versus driving:…read more ## The Flytoget Airport Express Train: The Fastest Way from Oslo Airport to the City If you're arriving at Oslo Airport and need to get into the city center quickly and conveniently, look no further than the fantastic Flytoget Airport Express Train. This high-speed train whisks passengers from the airport to Oslo Central Station in a mere 19 minutes[1], making it by far the fastest option.

Once you experience the speed and ease of the 19-minute train ride, you'll never want to drive that route again. Highly recommended for anyone traveling to or from Oslo Airport!

Quick business trip to Oslo - I had a couple of hours free, and unfortunately, our conference hotel…read morewas located way above the town. On the plus side, we were within a 15 minute walk to the nearest train stop that took us directly down town. After navigating a terrifying slip and slide walk down a massive icy hill in the middle of a small blizzard, we had just a few minutes wait until the next train came. We bought our train tickets at the hotel, so that was convenient. And apparently using the tickets was on the honor system! We figured out that once you get on the train, there is a scanner that you flash your ticket with. But I didn't see a single person do it except a few stupid tourists like us. Kudos for making it fairly easy to navigate the system.
