Flights to Bergen - Frequently Asked Questions
+ What is the best time to visit Bergen ?
The best time to visit Bergen (BGO) for comfortable sightseeing and fjord excursions is from May to September, when daytime temperatures are around 15–19 °C and days are long. June, July, and August provide the warmest conditions and the most daylight, which suits outdoor activities such as hiking the surrounding mountains or taking boat trips. May stands out as one of the drier months, with fewer crowds than peak summer while still offering relatively mild weather. Autumn and winter bring cooler temperatures, shorter days, and frequent rain, which suits travelers who prioritize a quieter city atmosphere over sunshine.
+ How far is the Bergen airport from downtown?
Bergen Airport, Flesland (BGO), is located about 18 km southwest of Bergen city center, and the journey by car or taxi takes around 30 minutes depending on traffic. The Bergen Light Rail (Bybanen) Line 1 runs directly between the airport terminal and the central Byparken stop, taking about 45 minutes. An airport express bus also connects the airport with several stops in downtown Bergen on a slightly faster schedule. Taxis and rental cars are available outside the terminal for travelers who prefer a direct point‑to‑point transfer.
