Icelandic APIs

API

Open APIs for Icelandic transportation and public services

Overview

The Icelandic APIs are a collection of RESTful open APIs providing real-time and static data for Icelandic transportation (bus, flight, ferry, toll) and related public services. Key endpoints include /bus (real-time bus positions/schedules), /flight (airport arrivals/departures), /ferry (routes/timetables), and /toll (toll station details). Responses are in JSON format with no authentication required. Use cases include building travel apps for tourists to track Icelandic transport, integrating ferry/flight data into navigation tools, or creating local commuter platforms for bus schedules and delays.

Example Integration (JavaScript)

script.js JS


fetch('http://docs.apis.is/')
  .then(res => res.json())
  .then(data => console.log(data))
  .catch(err => console.error(err));
