Reykjavík Domestic Airport (RKV)

Easy, simple, small airport. Bag check doesn't open until 45 minutes before so you don't need to be there long before your flight. There are luggage lockers available here too.

This airport excels in its simplicity and ease of navigation, making travel remarkably stress-free. Its well-organized layout ensures that passengers can quickly find their gates, amenities, and services. The waiting areas are thoughtfully designed, providing a comfortable and uncluttered environment. Ample seating, and clean facilities. The efficient security and check-in processes further enhance the airport's appeal, making it a refreshing contrast to larger, more chaotic hubs. The clear signage and intuitive flow mean that even first-time visitors can easily find their way around, allowing for a relaxed and enjoyable wait.

Denied boarding and promised a refund at the airport. Later the airline refused to honour that promise and only returned airport taxes. Very poor customer service.

Nice, clean, lots of bathrooms and food options. The gates are weird in that some are just a line along a wall. The food was good and there were a variety of options. I liked how clean they kept the bathrooms. There were multiple shops for Icelandic items, too. We were here for a layover so we had to go through customs. That was messy but ended up fine.

90% of the reviews HERE and pictures are actually for a wrong place (THIS IS NOT KEF airport). THIS is RKV Domestic airport. KEF is the international airport for Iceland, 50 minutes drive from this tiny Domestic airport. This Airport, Reykjavík Airport (RKV) is a tiny domestic airport in downtown Reykjavík. Almost only for domestic Iceland flights. So please before adding your review be sure if it is for RKV downtown airport (this one) or the big one international airport KEF airport in Reykjanes peninsula (50 minutes away).

Airport opens 1 hour before the first flight. There's a convenience store that sells snack, drinks, fruits and a few other knick knacks.

Lovely clean airport,very easy to navigate and polite staff. Cheap and cheerful 4 day 5 night holiday at under £500 with northern light and whale watching included. We stayed at the IKEA hotel close to the cathedral. Compact but tidy and has what you need. The food and drinks in the area are extremely expensive even in supermarkets, so either be prepared to spend or take your own dried food items with you. The hotel staff helped us book a day tour to local waterfalls and geysers for under £40 per person,which is definitely worth it! We visited the beautiful cathedral and learnt some of its history. Also spent a few hours whale watching on a small boat again, very polite staff and clean environment. Saw some amazing sites of whales with the mountains in the background. Northern lights tour is a must, definitely need your thermals on with standing around for so long in such cold temperatures.

Pretty basic. Might need an upgrade since most of it looks pretty much the same since the year 2005.
