How to get from Kittilä airport (KTT) to Levi and the other destinations it serves: shuttle, taxi and rental car options for 2026.
Kittilä Airport (KTT) is busiest in winter, when direct flights and charters arrive from London, Manchester, Paris, Frankfurt, Amsterdam and other European cities. Most passengers are skiers and holidaymakers heading to Levi, Ylläs, Muonio and the Western Lapland fells. The terminal is small and functional; getting out of it quickly is the main concern.
Airport bus from about €6 (Eskelisen) or €15 (Tunturilinjat), 15–24 min
Not practical, take the bus or rent a car
Two operators sell Kittilä airport–Levi tickets in the Matkahuolto ticket shop: Eskelisen line buses (€5.80–8.90) and the Tunturilinjat airport bus (€15, or €20 from Rakkavaara). Finavia lists Tunturilinjat as the Levi airport bus. In summer and outside the main season, transfers run on demand and must be booked ahead.
Some Levi and Ylläs hotels and package tours include airport transfers, so check your booking confirmation before paying for a separate transfer.
Only worth it if you have skis, family, or a very late flight. Taxis wait at the stand left of the main entrance at flight times; pre-booked taxis stop to the right. Book ahead via Levi-Kittilän Taksit (0200 99800) or Menevä (0800 02120).
