However, it's important to note that public buses may have limited schedules, especially during off-peak hours. It's advisable to check the bus timetable in advance to ensure you don't have to wait too long for a bus. Additionally, public buses may make multiple stops along the way, which can increase travel time. A public bus will have less storage space and assistance for luggage.

### Renting a car at Keflavik International Airport

Several car rental companies have desks at the airport, making it convenient to pick up your vehicle upon arrival. Renting a car allows you to explore Iceland at your own pace and venture to off-the-beaten-path destinations.

Before renting a car, it's important to familiarize yourself with Icelandic traffic rules and road conditions.

## **History of Keflavik International Airport**

Welcome to the fascinating history of Keflavik International Airport, a gateway to the stunning landscapes and unrivaled beauty of Iceland. With a rich heritage spanning several decades, this article will take you on a journey through the origins and development of this iconic transportation hub.

## **Early history of Keflavik as an airfield**

Keflavik, located on the Reykjanes Peninsula in southwestern Iceland, has a long history as an important aviation hub. Its story begins during World War II when the United States military recognized its strategic location between North America and Europe. In 1942, the United States Army Air Forces established a military airfield in Keflavik, known as Naval Air Station Keflavik.

During the war, Keflavik served as a crucial refueling and transit point for Allied aircraft crossing the North Atlantic. The airfield played a significant role in the Battle of the Atlantic, protecting convoys from German U-boats. After the war, Keflavik continued to be used by the U.S. military, facilitating air travel between the United States and Europe.

## **Development of Keflavik as an international airport**

In the 1950s, as commercial air travel began to boom, the need for a modern international airport in Iceland became evident. Keflavik, with its existing infrastructure, was the natural choice for this development. In 1951, the Icelandic government took over the airfield from the United States and started investing in its expansion.

By the 1960s, Keflavik had evolved into a fully operational international airport, accommodating both military and civilian flights. The airport's runway was extended, and new terminal buildings were constructed to handle the growing number of passengers. Keflavik International Airport became the primary gateway for travelers visiting Iceland and a crucial transit hub for flights between North America and Europe.

## **Keflavik Airport during World War II**

During World War II, Keflavik played a pivotal role in the Allied war effort. Its strategic location allowed the United States military to establish a strong presence in the North Atlantic, safeguarding shipping routes and providing support for the European theater. Keflavik served as a base for anti-submarine patrols, air defense operations, and search and rescue missions.

The airfield also played a crucial role in the transportation of troops and supplies, facilitating the movement of personnel and equipment between North America and Europe. It provided a vital link in the logistical chain that supported the Allied forces' operations. The military presence at Keflavik brought economic benefits to the local community, creating jobs and driving economic growth.

## The impact of the Cold War on Keflavík International Airport

The Cold War period brought significant changes and challenges to Keflavik Airport. As tensions between the United States and the Soviet Union escalated, Keflavik became even more strategically important. The airport served as a crucial outpost for monitoring Soviet submarine activity in the North Atlantic and was a key base for NATO's defense efforts.

During this time, Keflavik experienced significant military expansion, with additional infrastructure and facilities being built to support the growing military presence. The airport became a hub for military operations, hosting a variety of aircraft, including fighter jets, bombers, and surveillance planes. The Cold War era shaped the airport's identity and left a lasting impact on its development.

## **Modernization and expansion of Keflavik Airport**

In the late 20th century, Keflavik International Airport underwent a series of modernization and expansion projects to meet the demands of increasing air travel. The airport's facilities were upgraded, and new terminals were constructed to handle the growing number of passengers. The runway was extended to accommodate larger aircraft, and state-of-the-art navigational aids were installed.

These developments transformed Keflavik Airport into a modern and efficient transportation hub. The airport's improved infrastructure and services attracted more airlines, leading to an increase in the number of destinations served. Keflavik became a popular transit point for travelers flying between North America and Europe, as well as a gateway for tourists visiting Iceland.

## **Notable events and milestones at Keflavik Airport**

Over the years, Keflavik Airport has witnessed several notable events and milestones that have shaped its history. In 1973, the airport faced a major challenge when the eruption of the Eldfell volcano on the nearby island of Heimaey resulted in the temporary closure of the airport. The eruption caused significant disruption to air travel, highlighting the airport's vulnerability to natural disasters.

In 2008, Keflavik International Airport faced another challenge when Iceland experienced a severe economic crisis. The country's financial collapse had a significant impact on air travel, leading to a decline in passenger numbers and airline bankruptcies. However, the airport managed to recover and adapt to the changing economic landscape, emerging stronger than ever.

## **Keflavik International Airport today - facilities and services**

Today, Keflavik International Airport is a state-of-the-art facility that offers a wide range of facilities and services to cater to the needs of modern travelers. The airport boasts a modern terminal building equipped with shops, restaurants, and duty-free outlets. Passengers can take advantage of various amenities, including lounges, business centers, and free Wi-Fi.

It serves as a vital hub for Icelandair, the country's flagship carrier, and contributes significantly to Iceland's tourism industry. Keflavik International Airport continues to play a crucial role in connecting Iceland with the rest of the world.

## **Future plans and developments for Keflavik International Airport**

As air travel continues to evolve, Keflavik International Airport has plans for further expansion and improvement. The airport aims to increase its capacity to handle a higher volume of passengers and aircraft. Future developments include the construction of additional terminal buildings, the expansion of the runway, and the implementation of advanced technologies to enhance the airport's efficiency.

Keflavik International Airport also aims to improve its sustainability and reduce its environmental impact. Initiatives such as the use of renewable energy sources and the implementation of eco-friendly practices are being considered to make the airport more environmentally friendly.

### **Domestic flights in Iceland**

Reykjavik Airport serves as a convenient hub for domestic flights within Iceland, offering a range of departures to various destinations across the country. Unlike Keflavik International Airport, which mainly handles international flights, Reykjavik Airport provides a smoother and more time-efficient experience for travelers looking to explore the breathtaking landscapes and vibrant cities of Iceland without the need for long-distance travel.
