Where should I wait for you at the airport?

After you go through baggage claim and customs, you will enter the arrivals area. You can wait anywhere in that area, including the seating area nearby. Please do not wait in the departures area or at the restaurants near the departure area. When it is getting close to your schedule shuttle time, please keep an eye out for us and let us know when you see us. We will be holding a sign with your name on it and will be wearing a Happy Campers jacket/shirt.

What if my flight is delayed and/or lands after the last shuttle?

We’ve all been there, and we feel your pain. But we only offer a free shuttle service to/from the airport during those hours.

If you miss the last shuttle, we suggest finding a place to stay until we open. Just let us know about this change immediately so we can reschedule your shuttle. For example, if your flight arrival changed from 15:00 to 22:00, you must pick up your camper van at 08:00 the next day, at the earliest. There are many accommodations available in the Keflavik area.

If your flight is delayed but lands during our business hours, we will pick you up with the next available shuttle after you land.

Can I use your shuttle if I’m outside Keflavik?

We only offer our free shuttle service within the Keflavik area. We do not offer our shuttle service to or from Reykjavik, which is about a 40-minute drive. To go to/from Reykjavik, we recommend booking a ticket on the airport/city bus with Reykjavik Excursions (discount available for Happy Campers customers). We can drive you to/pick you up from the airport when you use the airport bus during our office hours. You can also use the public bus number 55 which stops close to our office and goes to the airport and Reykjavik, you can find more info on www.bus.is. The final option is a Taxi, which is also the most expensive option.

Can you bring the campervan to the airport or another location?

We do not offer to bring the camper to you in Reykjavik, or any other location, and we also do not accept the campervan to be returned at any other location.  

Can I pick up or return the camper van outside opening hours?

The campervan can only be picked up during our opening hours. You would need to find accommodation in the area and have us pick you up the next morning. However, we offer a free 24/7 campervan dropoff service, so you can return the van at any time. Please read more about this service here or see the answer to this particular question above.

If you arrive early in the morning, remember, you might have some time to kill until we can pick you up. Thankfully, the airport has free WiFi, some comfortable chairs, and a coffee shop to make the wait easier. Around your scheduled pick up time, please look out for us holding a Happy Campers sign with your name on it.

How do I get to the airport outside business hours?

With our 24/7 drop off service, you can drop off the campervan any time of day. Unfortunately, Happy Shuttle only runs during business hours. If you need to get to the airport, please check public bus no. 55 (the bus stop close to the Happy Campers office is called Tjarnarhverfi) or call a taxi.

How long is the pick-up process at the office?

On average, the pick-up process takes around 30 minutes. This includes paperwork, orientation, and a van tour. Of course, this may vary depending on how busy we are and how many questions you might have.
