Rovaniemi Airport

Rovaniemi Airport is about 10 km north of Rovaniemi city center. Taxis wait at the terminal exit, and the Airport Express bus links the airport with the railway station and several central hotels. The airport sits on the same side of town as Santa Claus Village, so many visitors pass the village on the way into the city.

Santa Claus Village and Santa Park are only about 2–3 km from Rovaniemi Airport. The Airport Express bus stops at Santa Claus Village on its way to the city center, and a taxi covers the distance in a short drive. Some hotels near Santa Park also run their own shuttles.

The airport sits right beside the Arctic Circle, a few kilometres from Santa Claus Village, where the Arctic Circle line is marked for visitors. Rovaniemi city center lies about 10 km to the south. Most visitors cross the line when they visit the village rather than at the airport itself, which is a short taxi or bus ride away.

Rovaniemi Airport has one terminal that handles all domestic and international flights. The departures hall was expanded in 2025 to cope with the winter peak, and the airport is one of only three in Finland with jet bridges. Arrivals from outside the Schengen Area go through passport control inside the same building before reaching baggage claim.

Finnair and Norwegian fly year-round between Rovaniemi and Helsinki, and Ryanair flies to Milan–Bergamo. In winter, many more airlines arrive, including easyJet, Ryanair, TUI Airways and Jet2.com from the UK, and Lufthansa, Eurowings, KLM, Air France, Austrian Airlines, Iberia, Vueling, Turkish Airlines and others from mainland Europe and Istanbul.

Yes. Taxis wait at the airport exit, and local companies such as Menevä, Taksi Rovaniemi and Lähitaksi also take phone or app bookings. The ride to the city center covers about 10 km. During the Christmas season several large flights can land close together, so expect short queues at the rank and consider booking ahead for larger groups.

Yes. The Airport Express bus runs from the airport via Santa Claus Village to the railway station and several city center hotels, with tickets paid to the driver by card. Timetables are on airportbus.fi. Outside the winter season service can be limited, and the local tourist office notes that a taxi may then be the only option.

Uber has operated in Rovaniemi since December 2023, so you can request a ride from the airport. The number of cars is small compared with larger cities, and waits can be longer when winter flights arrive together. Local taxi companies such as Menevä also offer app booking and often have cars waiting at the terminal.

Only if your flight comes from outside the Schengen Area, such as the UK, Turkey or Israel. Flights from Helsinki and other Schengen airports have no passport check. Non-EU travelers are registered in the EU Entry/Exit System (EES), fully operational since 10 April 2026; the planned ETIAS travel authorization is not yet in operation.

A direct bus runs from Rovaniemi Airport to the Pyhä-Luosto fells, four times a day in winter and twice a day in summer, with timetables published on Pyhä's website. Rental cars from Avis, Sixt, Hertz, Europcar and Green Motion are another option, though winter roads are often snowy and icy, so drive with care.

Rovaniemi is on Eastern European Time, UTC+2, and moves to UTC+3 for daylight saving time in summer. Finland uses the euro, and card payments are accepted almost everywhere, including on the airport bus. Winters are long, cold and snowy, so pack warm clothing and keep it handy for the walk from the terminal.

Rovaniemi Airport handled about 1.12 million passengers in 2025, up from about 948,000 in 2024. The airport is operated by Finavia, the Finnish airport company. Traffic peaks around Christmas, when seasonal flights from across Europe bring visitors to Santa Claus Village and Lapland, and is much quieter in summer.
