Getting from the airport to the city center

If you are flying to Jyväskylä Airport in Tikkakoski, note that there is no public bus transportation from the airport to the city centre, and taxi is available by pre-booking only. To arrange an airport pick up by taxi, please call in advance Jyväskylä area taxi service JYTAKSI, tel. (+358) 0100 6900. The taxi from Tikkakoski airport to the city centre costs about 50 euro.

Getting to Jyväskylä from Helsinki airport

It is a good and often more affordable choice to fly to Helsinki and take a train to Jyväskylä straight from the airport. The train ride takes about 3,5 hours. The sooner you book, the cheaper you will get the tickets. The train station is located right next to the town center. You can find more information from Finavia and VR.
