Oslo–Gothenburg coaches on Vy bus4you sometimes stop at Landvetter
Vy bus4you is not a regular airport shuttle at Göteborg Landvetter Airport (GOT); it’s an intercity coach line on routes like Oslo–Gothenburg and Stockholm–Gothenburg that only sometimes call at the airport bus stops on route 40. Timings are built around long‑distance demand, not SAS or Ryanair arrival banks, so you might see a single coach in a late‑evening hour and then nothing for several more.
Because journey time and cost vary by route segment, you need to look up your specific departure on Vy’s site or app to see the Landvetter–city price in SEK and the exact minutes to Nils Ericson Terminalen. Schedules can put a northbound coach toward Oslo or a southbound coach from Stockholm at Landvetter close to 23:00 or later, which is why locals mention it in night‑transport threads as an extra option once the usual airport buses thin out.
Bus4you coaches stop at the same roadside airport stops used by other long‑distance buses along highway E6/E20–route 40, not at a separate private terminal. You walk a few hundred meters from the arrivals hall at GOT to the bus bays signed for regional and intercity services; allow at least 10 minutes from baggage belt to stop if you’re landing on a Schengen flight and more if you’re clearing passport control.
Regulars who already have a Vy ticket between cities sometimes change their boarding point to “Göteborg Landvetter flygplats” instead of “Gothenburg Nils Ericson” to skip one extra transfer and save the 20–30 minutes into town. People in the same Reddit thread that mentions Bus4You also name‑check FlixBus, saying these coaches “sometimes go past” Landvetter, which tells you it’s an opportunistic pick, not core airport transport.
Step-by-step: how to use Vy bus4you at GOT
- 1. Before you fly, search your date and route (for example Oslo–Gothenburg) in the Vy app and confirm that at least one coach lists “Göteborg Landvetter flygplats” as a stop.
- 2. Check the exact departure time at Landvetter and compare it with your flight’s scheduled landing; build at least a 45–60 minute buffer in case of baggage delay.
- 3. Buy or adjust your ticket in the Vy system so your boarding stop is set to the airport, not central Gothenburg; confirm the SEK fare for that segment on the payment screen.
- 4. On arrival at GOT, follow signs toward “Bus/Bussterminal” and walk out to the long‑distance bays used by intercity coaches on route 40; this usually takes about 5–10 minutes from arrivals.
- 5. Be at the stop at least 10 minutes before the printed time, since coaches don’t wait and there might be only that single Bus4you departure toward Oslo or Stockholm in your time window.
Practical tip: if the Vy timetable doesn’t show “Göteborg Landvetter flygplats” for your chosen coach, treat Bus4you as a city‑to‑city option only and default to the dedicated airport bus from GOT instead of gambling on a non‑stopping through‑service.
