Definitely worth splurging on this express train to ensure you make your flight time, especially first thing in the morning. 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. read more

Flytoget - Public Transportation Near Me - Oslo, 03

Here is a review comparing the express train from Oslo Airport to the city center versus driving: ## 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. In contrast, driving from the airport to central Oslo typically takes 40-50 minutes[3], over double the travel time of the express train. Traffic and road conditions can also make the drive unpredictable. With the Flytoget, you avoid all that stress and arrive in under 20 minutes, guaranteed. Some other great benefits of taking the Airport Express Train: - Departs every 10 minutes[1], so you never have to wait long - Children under 16 travel for free with an adult[1] - Print your airline bag tags right on the train and skip the airport check-in queues[1] - Comfortable, reliable, and the only high-speed train in Norway[2] For the fastest, simplest, and most convenient way to travel the 50 km between Oslo Airport and the city center, the Flytoget Airport Express Train can't be beat. 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! read more

Flytoget - Public Transportation Near Me - Oslo, 03

Skulle fly 14. juni, men flytoget ble kansellert og neste tog var over 45 minutter forsinket på grunn av stopp. Ansatte på toget forsikret meg om at hvis jeg gikk glipp av flyet mitt på grunn av dette, ville deres refusjonspolicy gjelde. Hun forsikret meg om at tjenestemennene på Oslo lufthavn enten ville kjøpe meg en ny billett eller at jeg kunne kjøpe denne selv hvis jeg ikke kom med flyet. Dette stolte jeg selvfølgelig på.. når jeg og halve toget bommet på flyet vårt, sier supporten etterpå at dette ikke gjelder, da jeg kun ville vært på flyplassen 80 minutter før avgang i stedet for 90 minutter. Glad dere har gått glipp av avtalen om å kjøre denne linjen i fremtiden. Helt dumt at det ikke skal være mulig å stole på flytoget eller ansatte for å komme seg til flyplassen... read more

Efficient, clean and affordable way to get to Oslo city center from the airport! Make sure you download the app and buy tickets online to avoid long lines at the kiosks. The app allowed us catch the train that was about to depart because we didn't have to waste time to stand in line! The tickets on your phone come in a QR code for you to scan at the gate. There was only one QR code for both of our tickets so after I scanned my phone at the gate I passed it to my bf to scan again. The platform was a floor down the escalator, pretty straight forward. The train itself was punctual, clean, fast and comfortable. I found the small steps in front of the door of the train car unnecessary though given that everyone would have heavy luggage. Not the best design. But the train is pretty much the only reasonable way to get to the city center late at night since the airport is quite far; taxi or Uber would be pretty expensive for that distance. The train station was also next to the tram station so it was convenient to get around. I still think the Airport Express in HK is better, but Flytoget is pretty close. Bonus points for the QR code ticket! read more

Best option to get to and from Oslo Airport. The train is fast, they have a screen in the train with speeds up to 190 kmph. Seats are comfortable and, plenty of leg room as well as storage for your large bags. The train cars are quite, and have free wifi (though by the time you are connected, it is time to get off!). The path to the train on both stations is clearly labeled and there are multiple options to buy tickets. The easiest might be to get a return option. read more

We had 2 large suitcases and 2 carryon size pieces plus 2 extra bags. We wheeled thru the airport and found Flytoget. Went to the kiosk and as I was putting in 1 adult and 1 Senior a representative came over and told me since we are together I can put in 2 seniors. Saved us some NOK!! We took the elevator down to the track and even though we just missed the train another one came within 10 minutes. A quick ride to Oslo Central Station and we were off exploring Oslo. Very clean and smooth riding train. There is a big step up to get on board so it was a little hard with all the luggage but all in all an easy way to get to and from the airport. Free wifi on board too! read more

Flytoget - Public Transportation Near Me - Oslo, 03

I arrived at Oslo airport late at night when the regular train service ends. So I could either take the Flytoget train or a taxi, and I chose Flytoget (it would be much cheaper than a taxi or uber). The train was quite clean, and modern looking. There outlets for charging for phone and a tv playing news (in Norwegian). There was information screen listing the next stops. The Flytoget train I was on made one stop before arrive at the central train station in Oslo. It only took 20 minutes. If you're pressed for time and can't buy a ticket you can use your credit card to swipe through at the barrier and select your final destination. You swipe out at the arriving station. It was easy to use. The train is expensive and when I went back to the airport I took the National Train, and the one I happened to be on only had one stop (like the Flytoget train I was on earlier). While the journey was maybe five minutes longer I think I would have used the National Train if it was running at midnight when I arrived. In anycase if you don't mind paying a bit more then Flytoget is a nice service. read more

Clean, fast, and comfortable! Purchasing a ticket at the airport couldn't be easier! Signs clearly show where the train is (exit area of airport). And when on the tracks look for the sign that says you want to go to Oslo S station. This is downtown Oslo. While on the train I would recommend using Google Maps so you can track your route. On board the train they have free WiFi. The train has luggage storage or you can keep near your seat, as long as you don't block the aisle. When you arrive in Oslo the main train station is a short walk to Karl Johans Gate. read more

Super easy express train from Gardomoen to Oslo or on to Drammen.. ticket machines at the airport gives you the option of English and the process is straightforward and painless. I paid 250kr to get to Drammen, compared to 205kr on a regional train, but with limited stops and a quicker service, it was well worth the extra 45kr. My only complaint would be the luggage compartments are all shaped for suitcases which is normally not an issue.. but was rather awkward as I had a snowboard bag. Carriages were fairly empty (bonus of travelling in Winter) and very clean. The free wi-fi worked a treat for me and was nice to be able to message a few friends to confirm safe arrival when I wasn't staring out the window at the passing scenery. All in all, a great service and I'll be using it again to get back to the airport next week.. although I'm in two minds about trying out the regional train instead.. read more

Flytoget - Public Transportation Near Me - Oslo, 03

Took the express train, it's super quiet inside, clean, the most comfortable seats (cushioned) on a train I've ever taken, slim tall TV screen displaying all kinds of news including stock market prices for the day, of course, ads, too :) It has shelves for people to put their travel luggage and suitcases. Fast, clean, well-priced, super comfortable, great design! Tusind tak :) read more

A great door to door service from Oslo airport to the city centre. Nice clean trains with power and nice seats. Very quick from the airport to town and relatively inexpensive compared to taxi as the airport is almost 50k from the city center. They run every ten or twenty minutes and the journey takes less than 30 mins. Loved it and will definitely use it again. Access to this train is easy from the airport. read more

Flytoget is the most notable way to get to and from OSL to the city center. Although expensive (180 NOK for adults), the Flytoget train is super fast and clean. I only took it from the city center to the airport, but you enter the train without scanning your pass. You only tap out with your ticket once you arrive at Oslo Airport. The train is pretty spacious and punctual. There is also Wi-Fi and plugs for those people who need to get some work done, but you will quickly be at the airport! TIP: If you are a student or senior, download the app onto your phone and then you can pay the reduced price! read more

Why should I pay double price for train (190 NOK) if it is even slower than regular train (100 NOK)? It should be fastest train and gets you from airport to Oslo Central station in 20 min but for me it was 58 minutes. As I understand only after leaving the train, the staff was giving pay checks for taxi to some customers but for everyone else there was not even a chance to find out that it is possible to have that kind of pay check.. My first time with Flytoget and I am very disappointed! read more

Used this train last time I was in Oslo and it was awesome and reliable. On my next trip to Oslo I assumed i was flying into Oslo main airport again so I downloaded the app and bought my ticket. Then during my layover I realize I'm landing at a different airport 2 hours away with only his or regular train service! So when i finally made my way to the main train station I stopped at the main desk and asked for refund. So easy! No hassle and it was done right away! Couldn't believe it. If only every business was this reliable, nice and customer service oriented!! Also when I waited to be seen, the attendant was helping another family due to lost bags. Service like this is amazing and guy spoke 3 different languages helping everyone. Truly amazing!!! read more

Too expensive, and they don't guarantee a seat. There have been numerous times where people had to stand in the isle. Also experienced numerous times that the train departure got delayed. Double the price (180 kr) vs NSB trains (90kr) for a single ticket from Oslo to Gardermoen for the only convenience that they are 2 minutes faster than the NSB trains? No thanks.. I only take this train when there is no other possibility (after 23.47 at Gardermoen when the last NSB trains have left, early in the morning at Oslo S, or when NSB has delays). Bonus point for their customer service, as they are pretty easy giving refunds in case of delays that cause you to miss your flight or your last tbane/trikk home.. read more

We took the Flytoget from the Oslo Airport to Central Station and we were pleasantly surprised on how efficient, nice and clean the train was. I've taken a lot of airport trains, but this one by far has been the nicest to date. People say it's expensive, but what isn't expensive in Oslo? For our return trip, we were rushing to from Central Station to make the train back to the airport when we saw lines for each ticket machine. I then saw another kiosk which was a "card reader" where all you had to do swipe your credit card and that's your ticket. When exiting the station on the other end, all you have to do swipe that same credit card at the gates. Just a tip, if you're purchasing two tickets with the same card you have to swipe at two different card readers before you get onto the train and then again swipe at two different card readers when existing. Would I take the Flytoget train again? Most Definitely! read more

'Ello chaps! FlyToGet is the Express train, providing service between Oslo's Gardermoen airport to Central Station in downtown Oslo. With frequent service, the express train can get you from one point to the other in approximately 20 minutes. The trains are modern, clean, and comfortable. More so there are electric plug ins to charge cell phones and free WiFi on board. Luggage space is also available though can be a little limited. For any visitor to Oslo, this is definitely the better options to take traveling between the City and Oslo. With the connection in Central Station, it's easy to get downtown and then transfer to another train line to where ever your final destination may be. Tickets can be purchased at the booth at Oslo Airport. IMPORTANT. It's probably best to go ahead and purchase a round trip (return) fare when purchasing your ticket. That'll save your time. Also understand to keep tight to your ticket. On your return trip you will not need it to board the train and to take the ride, however you WILL need it once you get off the train, as the ticket is required to make it through the turnstiles at the arriving platform back at Oslo Airport. Based on price, comfort, convenience , and access, I give FlyToGet 5 stars. read more

Crazy expensive train (welcome to Norway!) but pretty much necessary if you want to get to central Oslo quickly. The train goes past central station (Oslo S) all the way to Drammen -- but if you're going there, I'd take a regular train. Depending on the time of day, this train could be empty or totally packed. There's theoretically Wi-Fi on the train, but it's often hit-or-miss. And lots of people ignore the quiet car rules when the train is packed. It's such a short ride, however, so it doesn't really matter I guess. Tip #1: Don't automatically assume you're staying near Oslo S. Find out the closest station and get off there (I used National Theater, for example). If you need a taxi, however, get off at Oslo S. Tip #2, if you're embarking at the airport, don't need a paper receipt, and are in a hurry: when you enter the payment area, skip the ticket booths on the left and go directly to the gate. Each turnstile has a credit-card swipe-to-enter-and-pay. A few extra seconds can save 15-20 min waiting for the next train. Not that I would know this or anything ::cough:: read more

Space-age is the only way I can describe Flytoget, which is an operation that is as efficient as humanly possible. You can pay simply by swiping your card either before and/or after you board, or you can buy tickets from humans or machines. The train is very fast, with only a few stops, and in 20 minutes you're at the airport from Oslo's city center. 180 kr. read more

For me, Flytoget is the only way to reach the Oslo centrum from the airport, or to my office in Sandvika for that matter. It's fast and simple. You don't even need to buy a ticket from a vending machine or ticket booth, just swipe your credit card on the gate and that's it. The same goes when you are going to the airport from your station, this time you need to swipe it before you get on the train and swipe it once again during your arrival at the airport to open the gate. It's so easy and you can find your receipt electronically online. Sure it's expensive, but what's not in Oslo? I'd rather pay more and save time than pay less and spend more time? Flybussen is a good alternative, but unless your destination is somewhere close to Flybussen stop, then I would chose the train over the bus thousand times. ..and did I mention that my office is in Sandvika, one of the stops that Flytoget stops on its way to Drammen from the airport? Simple and easy. Train is very modern with loads of luggage place. You get electric outlets too and recently they start to have wifi inside the train. read more

This train makes it really easy to get from the airport to the city center but at an absurdly high cost... a one-way ticket (which you can't even use on any other transportation) comes out to be a little under $30. I'd rather take NSB and get a ticket that will work on other modes of transportation as well. I took this train because I got in super late and really wanted to get into city center as efficiently as I could in order to catch the last few trams of the night. If you have time, then I highly wouldn't recommend this. The train is very nice though, and if you're tight on time, go for it. tldr; insanely expensive for a short 20 min ride, but very easy way to get into city center from the airport read more

This was quite an efficient service! The sleek train whisks you into Oslo Sentrum from the airport. It also your first introduction into the cost of visiting Norway. Nothing is cheap in Norway (by US standards), and transportation is no exception. Expect to pay about $27-$28 for a one way ticket into Sentrum, however if you are a student or military personnel, there are discounts available. The good news is that once the train departs, you will be in Oslo in about 20 minutes and can start your Norwegian adventure. You buy your ticket from a machine at the airport. The area for the flytoget is well-marked once you pass baggage claim. Once entering the train, there are generally plenty of seats. When we used the train we encountered a virtually empty car and sat there. The seats were comfortable and the car was exceptionally clean. This seems to be the best bet out there for transportation between the city of Oslo and the airport. Once you get to Oslo Sentrum, you are very close to many of the tourist attractions and hotels. read more

Quick & direct service to and from Oslo Gardermoen airport and central train station in downtown Oslo. Fare machines with major language instructions on lower floor of air terminal. Fare was 170 Kroner each way or approx $28.00 USD and well worth the expense. read more

Very fast and convenient, however it does come at a cost! Very pricey for a ride to Oslo central station and in my opinion worth it to not have to deal with traffic or taxi's. The kiosks we had to use to purchase tickets were very user friendly and convenient. read more

Super easy to use and the BEST way to get from the airport into Oslo city center. Tickets can be purchased from the machine using a credit card, and by selecting your destination. Easy luggage storage at the end of each train car. read more

This is an excellent train service. Considering how far Gardermoen is from Oslo, the Flytoget gets you into the city center blazingly quickly. It is clean, the ticket machines are easy to use and I can only dream that we will get something similar in the US someday. read more

This high speed train is the bomb!! Super clean and sophisticated!! I really enjoyed our ride.

A very quick and easy method of transport from Gardermoen Airport to Oslo and Drammen (and places in between). The trains run on schedule and are very clean. It wasn't too crowded when I visited - so I have high praise. read more

A bit expensive, but SO convenient with comfortable seatings, electrisity with each seating, and fast transportation when you're in a hurry! The app to book transportation is recommended! read more

The ideal airport transfer to and from Oslo. At Jul 2016 rates, it is about $21 each way (much cheaper than Stockholm) and it was easy to buy a ticket with a credit card (best to use a card with no foreign transaction fee.) There is free wifi on the train and the train is clean, modern, fast and safe. There are several stops in town including National Theater and the Center stops. I bought a roundtrip ticket at the airport (no discount) and ticket control both ways is at the airport, so don't try and sneak on for the return as you will get busted at the airport. read more

Fast, easy, modern train service -- at least for city to airport service. Like the easy credit card purchases and the online linking for receipts. The best option from the airport to Oslo, everything considered. Haven't had good success with the WiFi. Expensive, but not insane compared to Stockholm airport train service or Busekspressen read more

A very fast, clean and efficient train from the airport to Oslo Central Station in a half hour with only one stop in between. There are plugs by every seat to charge your electronics! I've read that there is a cheaper and slightly slower alternative, but this train worked fine for us. read more

During the July 24 system outage at Oslo Central Station, the Flytoget staff showed how incompetent they truly are. They gave all passengers taxi vouchers without confirming there were taxis available. Complete chaos ensued with people pushing, jumping the lines to get on the handful of taxis there were for hundreds of passengers who needed to get to the airport to catch their flights. Flytoget had no backup plans for this outage, and was doing nothing to call in more taxis or arrange buses, even after I asked them to make the calls. Ridiculous!! Extremely disappointed!!! I'd give them negative stars if I could. read more

Left the airport at 12:20am ride that was suppose to be 20min took 60min.... so what's the point in an amazing looking train if the express is the slowest way to get to oslo..... read more

Train we took from the airport to the main station in Oslo. Easy to buy tickets, fast, clean, quiet, got me from point A to point B safely with no creepy people on it lol. No complaints here. Nice scenery also during the train ride. Expensive but hey, no choice. Would you rather pay more for a taxi or a rental car? Public transportation is the best way to get around in Oslo. Students can get a discount also if I remember correctly. read more

Excellent, quick and not to expensive either compared to other alternatives. I have always been able to rely on the train to get me to where I want in time. read more
