Arlanda Airport to Stockholm

Arlanda Express

The Arlanda Express airport train runs non-stop from stations under Terminals 2 to 5 to Stockholm Central in about 18 to 20 minutes, every 15 minutes for most of the day. It is the fastest way into the city but also the most expensive per person; group and youth fares bring the price down.

Commuter trains and SJ

They cost much less than Arlanda Express, though an airport station fee is added to journeys to or from Arlanda. SJ intercity trains also call at Arlanda Central and reach Stockholm in about 20 minutes, and trains north to Uppsala and Lapland stop here too. You can compare times and book Swedish train tickets on Omio.
