Returning Your Car

Returning the car: usually 5–10 minutes.
Getting to the terminal: 5–10 minutes on foot or with our shuttle.
Check-in and security: can take a long time at the airport's busiest hours.

Returning your car at Keflavík Airport is quick – but leave enough time for your flight. Here's how it works during opening hours.

How much time do I need?

We recommend arriving at our return station about 3 hours before your flight:

Drive to the return station at Blikavöllur 5, Keflavíkurflugvöllur – open 06:00–20:00 daily. Open in Google Maps
Fill up or charge before you return: petrol and diesel cars with a full tank, electric cars with at least 80% charge.
Remove all your belongings – check the glove box, the trunk, under the seats and the charging cables.
Hand over the key. Our staff check the car together with you – fuel or charge level, mileage and any damage.
Settle any open items. Damage found at the return inspection is charged on the spot.
Head to the terminal – a short walk of about 500 meters, or our shuttle on request. See Return station – walking route & shuttle.

Note: The shuttle doesn't run on a fixed schedule. At busy times there may be a short wait.

The road tax, and any tolls, parking fees or fines registered during your rental, are charged after the car is returned. See Road tax information and Parking, tolls and fines in Iceland.
