  • In this video I will show you how to take the train from Oslo Gardermoen Airport (OSL) to Oslo City Centre - the CHEAP Way!
    This excellent regional rail system serves the airport with 4-6 high-capacity 200km/h trains per hour, and at half the price of the dedicated 'Flytoget' Airport Express... and it's only 4 minutes slower!

    Frankly - you DON'T need the Vy app at all - you can either go for Ruter (which will also give you all routes for Oslo public network) OR you can pay in train by getting on the right coach where attendants are available.

      Is there a “supplement” to pay onboard?

      @DiscoverByRail somehow missed answering this. Yes, I think there is a 40kr surcharge. Not sure if it is applicable per transaction or per zone.

    What app did you use to measure the speed of the train?

    The 1st thing the V app asks for is to choose which line you want with a choice of 5. Which one is it? Thank you

    Not all Trains calling at OSL are of the 2+3 configuration. Some, with final Destination further away from Oslo Central Station, are with a 2+2 configuration and tilting Seatback possibility.

    Have now done this - very simple. Ticket machine very easy to find and use. Not sure why people use Flytoget for this trip when the Vy train is just over half the price and only 4 minutes slower. Returning to Oslo airport I managed to pick a day when there was a replacement bus/coach service which was a bit disorganised.

    Hiya. Were travelling to the main Oslo Airport to the City Centre next week for a holiday. So, from what i've heard this FlytoGet train service is the cheapest ans faster way? And if we are travelling to other cities within Norway would you know of a website or app to check for fares?
