We recommend our couples try to fly to Bergen, because it is only 2.5 hours by car from Flåm and Aurland. From here we can arrange an airport transfer direct to your Flåm/Aurland hotel. This is the perfect way to start your destination wedding experience in comfort.

Bergen, the gateway to the fjords, is easily accessible from many international destinations. Whether you're arriving from within Europe or further afield, Bergen Airport, Flesland (BGO), offers convenient connections to start your Norwegian adventure.

Tips for Booking Flights to Bergen:

Book in advance: Flights to Bergen can be more expensive during peak season (summer), so booking in advance is recommended.

Be flexible with your dates: Traveling mid-week or during the shoulder seasons (spring/autumn) can often save you money.
Use flight comparison websites: Compare prices from different airlines and agencies to find the best deals.
Consider flying to Oslo: Oslo Airport (OSL) has more international connections. You can then take a domestic flight or train to Bergen.
Check baggage allowances: Be aware of baggage restrictions and fees before you book. Many brides choose to travel with their wedding dress in their hand luggage.
