Getting Here
Sumburgh Airport, ZE3 9JP, is located on the southern tip of the Shetland Mainland, nearly 25 miles south of the Lerwick.
Airport Runway Road Crossing
One of the many things that are special about Sumburgh Airport is its island location. If you are collecting a passenger or driving to catch a flight there, you need to be aware that the public road crosses the runway.
For everyone’s safety, please make sure that when you are driving between the road barriers, don’t stop or deviate from the road and follow any instructions given by staff.
Public Transport
An hourly bus to Lerwick (Service 6 - South Mainland) operates directly opposite the main terminal front - view the timetable.
Taxis
Taxis can usually be found right outside the terminal front door. Please speak with a member of our team if you have any difficulties finding a taxi.
