About this experience
Arlanda Express Tickets: Arlanda Airport to Stockholm Central in 18 Minutes Book Arlanda Express tickets for the fastest way between Stockholm Arlanda Airport and the city centre. The non-stop train takes 18 minutes to reach Stockholm Central Station, with trains about every 15 minutes from early morning to late evening. Choose a one-way ticket or a ticket for the journey there and back, in either direction. The e-ticket arrives by email straight after booking, so you can walk off your flight and head straight down to the train. Your ticket is valid for 90 days and works on any Arlanda Express train, so a delayed flight or a change of plans does not mean buying a new ticket. Because the train runs on its own line, the journey time stays the same whatever the traffic on the motorway into Stockholm. Which Arlanda Express Station to Use at the Airport Arlanda Express has two stations at the airport, both directly below the terminals. Arlanda South serves Terminals 2, 3 and 4, and Arlanda North serves Terminal 5, where most international flights arrive and depart. From arrivals, follow the Arlanda Express signs and take the lift or escalator down to the platform. There is no platform fee to enter or leave the airport stations. The train is also handy if you are changing terminals, since the ride between Arlanda South and Arlanda North is free. In the city, the trains use their own platforms at Stockholm Central Station on the Centralplan side of the station. Follow the Arlanda Express signs from the main hall. On Board the Arlanda Express The carriages are air-conditioned, with plenty of space for suitcases, free Wi-Fi and USB charging points at every seat. Staff on board speak English and Swedish and can help passengers who use a wheelchair or travel with a bicycle. The trains are wheelchair accessible and guide dogs are welcome. Pets can travel in a cage or similar carrier in the middle carriages, so passengers with allergies can sit in any of the other carriages. Under the Arlanda Express rules, children aged 0 to 17 travel free with a paying adult aged 26 or over, which makes the train good value for families. Children aged 0 to 7 always travel free when they are with someone aged 18 or over. Where to Go Next from Stockholm Central Station Stockholm Central Station is the hub of the city's commuter trains, metro and buses, so onward travel to your hotel is easy. Gamla Stan, the old town, is a short walk or one metro stop away, and Södermalm is a few minutes beyond. If you want to plan your first day, see our guide to things to do in Stockholm, ride the Stockholm hop-on hop-off bus for an easy overview of the city, or save on entry fees with the Go City Stockholm All-Inclusive Pass. Travelling on a tighter budget and not in a hurry? The Flygbussarna airport coach also links Arlanda Airport with the city centre and takes longer than the train.
