Is Arlanda Express worth it?
Is Arlanda Express worth it? Let's be honest, it is pricey compare to other options like Flygbussarna but I would pay the price ten times more if I need to. 20 minutes from Stockholm to Arlanda Airport is priceless and if you also travel with the confort you have in this train you would even want the journey to be longer.
Can I go directly to the airport and buy a ticket?
Yes, you can buy plane tickets at the airport. Most airports have ticket counters or designated areas where you can purchase your ticket directly from the airline or their authorized agents.
Why is Arlanda Airport so crowded?
According to Swedavia, the company that runs Arlanda Airport, the congestion is due to a sharp increase in passenger numbers following the COVID-19 pandemic. Also, the company has had trouble recruiting and training staff to man the security gates. The security vetting of new employees is another bottleneck.
