Arriving at Vagar Airport

Most travelers arrive at the Faroe Islands via Vágar Airport (FAE), the only airport in the archipelago, located on the island of Vágar. Direct flights are available from several European cities, including Copenhagen, Reykjavik, Edinburgh, and Bergen, making it surprisingly accessible despite its remote location. As your plane descends, you’ll be greeted with panoramic views of the rugged coastline, steep cliffs, and verdant hills that characterize the Faroe Islands. The small but efficient airport ensures a smooth arrival process, with car rental services and public transportation options readily available to help you begin your adventure.
