From 01 September 2022, the prices for scheduled flights with the helicopter have changed. The price will now be differentiated according to where you have registered residence.
The Faroese government subsidizes scheduled flights with Atlantic Airway's helicopter. The aim is to give residents of the smaller islands a regular connection to the mainland.
To see the price for the desired journey, you must first select whether you have registered residence in the Faroe Islands or not.
