The airport is in Vantaa, so a taxi might not be too expensive.

As WestAusie says the Airport is almost in East Vantaa...some say it seperates East Vantaa from West Vantaa but in my opinion..East Vantaa main town is Tikkurila and that is almost on the airport.

There are buses running from the airport to Tikkurila railway station..ask at the Airport arrival info desk for directions/bus number.
A bus will cost you less than 3 Euro..a taxi 15 Euro.
If you know the address you are tryng to get to we can probably give you more info,

Bus 61 to Mellunmäki is the best option..it goes through East Vantaa and costs only about 2 euro.

If the stupid git has no idea where he is staying in, getting on a bus through the ghettoes is not going to be any help for him.

Besides which, the Question is:

where is he going to be getting the key for his flat?
when is his airplane going to be landing?

So I wouldn't give a fornitcating ptermigan's excrement worth where in the arsxend of the universe he is going to be living - REALITY OF LIFE!!!

1. WHEN are you going to be landing at the airport?
2. HOW are you going to get to the housing office giving out the keys?
3. IS the goddamnification office open, when you land, and get there?

I should not say if you are some sort of an "university" student, asking these elementary questions will prove, if you land on Friday at 19, your flat is 50km off the airport, and to give you the key the housing office, that opens at 8am on Monday requires you to show a student certi9ficate from school, where the office that opens on next week Wednesday...

Give me full advice on the internet!
