Getting Around
How to get to and from Lappeenranta Airport — taxis, public transport, shuttles and car rental.
Transport Options at LPP
Lappeenranta Airport is connected to Lappeenranta and the wider Finland transport network by multiple ground transport options.
Local bus route 4 connects the airport to Lappeenranta town center and the railway station, but at airport-scale, not city-scale, frequency — this is a tiny regional field, not a hub with round-the-clock transit.
A small local taxi fleet serves the airport; outside of a scheduled or charter arrival, you may need to call ahead rather than expect one waiting curbside.
No meaningful Uber/Bolt presence at this scale of airport — taxi is the practical option.
No major international rental chain keeps a counter on-site; a couple of local Lappeenranta agencies can arrange a car with advance notice, or you can rent from an office in town a short taxi ride away.
Lappeenranta Airport lost its last scheduled airline route (Ryanair's seasonal Bergamo, Italy service) in late October 2025, and the city-owned operator ended regular passenger operations from January 1, 2026. What's left is general aviation, flight training, and occasional seasonal charter flights (e.g., holiday charters to destinations like Corfu). If you're flying through here at all in 2026, you're almost certainly on one of those charters rather than a scheduled airline — confirm ground-transport timing with your charter operator, since bus and taxi availability track that one flight rather than a real schedule.
