travel to akureyri

I’m pushed around these days. In wheelchairs. I’m so grateful there are wheelchair services in airports. I’m challenged by distance walking, and catching a ride is a blessing. The faster I’m pushed, the better I like it. Að þjóta

We landed in Keflavik at 6:00am.

A wheelchair service greeted me when I walked off the plane. Off we went!, with my friend trying to keep up. It paid off to be in a wheelchair when we went through customs. Long lines were avoided as we went to the front of the lines, showed our passports, grabbed our luggage, our rental car, and took off for Akureyri .

A short stop for coffee and a serving of Skyr to go… an amazing drive across the tundra to Akureyri!

The drive from Keflavik to Akureyri takes about 5 hours.

We made it in just 9 hours! They were very welcoming and accommodating. Bedtime was soon after check-in.

There was a signup in the front desk to be notified if the Northern Lights make an appearance.

No Northern lights. Rather, a sunrise.
