Rovaniemi Airport (IATA code RVN) is the gateway to Finnish Lapland, about 10 km north of the city centre — and right next to Santa Claus Village.

Flights

Finnair operates direct flights from Helsinki year-round (about 1h 20min), with easy connections from around the world. In winter, seasonal and charter routes also link Rovaniemi directly with several European cities.

Getting to the city

An airport shuttle bus meets flights and stops at the main hotels; taxis and pre-booked transfers are available too. If you book a tour with us, we can arrange hotel pickup.

Right by Santa Claus Village

The airport sits beside Santa Claus Village, so many visitors stop to cross the Arctic Circle on arrival or departure.

Facilities

The terminal is small and easy, with a café, car rental and shops. See our getting to Rovaniemi guide for all routes.
