Its airfield (IATA: SIJ, ICAO: BISI) occupies a narrow spit in the fjord and, since scheduled services ended, sees only sporadic general aviation and emergency use. The opening of the Héðinsfjörður tunnel in 2010 gave the town a reliable year-round road link towards Akureyri, largely removing the need for regular flights.
