Getting to Bergen

From the airport

From Bergen Airport the light rail called 'Bybanen' goes to the city centre. Bybanen has stops at the campus on Kronstad, as well as the student accommodation at Fantoft. A ticket with Bybanen costs 40 NOK and takes approximately 30 minutes to Kronstad and 45 minutes to the city centre. Bybanen is the best and cheapest alternative for students arriving by plane. 

There are airport buses running between the airport and the city centre. These do not stop at the campus, nor at the student accommodation. A ticket with the airport bus costs approximately 130 NOK.

A taxi from Bergen Airport Flesland takes approximately 20 minutes to the student accommodation at Fantoft and 30 minutes to the campus at Kronstad, depending on traffic. 

Getting to campus from the city centre

If you arrive by train or boat, you will need to go to the campus or student accommodation from the city centre. The easiest way to get to Campus Kronstad and the student accommodation at Fantoft, is to take the light rail, "Bybanen." The campus and the accommodation both have stops with the same names. Both Bybanen-lines stop at campus Kronstad. Only line 1 goes to Fantoft.
