Stockholm Flights

Classic charm and natural beauty make Stockholm an unforgettable destination for your next holiday. The capital city of Sweden is built upon 14 main islands connected by 50 bridges on Lake Mälaren. In this bustling city, you’ll discover grand palaces, captivating museums, and a beautiful archipelago made up of 24,000 islands and islets. You’ll also find that Stockholm offers a fully cosmopolitan experience as well. You can discover plenty of places to shop, dine, and party to your heart’s delight. Come during the summer months and enjoy nearly endless daylight—up to 18 hours a day—or celebrate the winter with plenty of snow and great ski runs.

Start your trip off by visiting Stockholm Palace or the Drottningholm Palace, where the royal family resides. The city is home to more than 70 museums, so spend some time browsing the exhibits. The most popular are the Vasa Museum and the Skansen, an open air museum. Don’t miss out on Stockholm’s old town, called Gamla stan, where you can walk along cobbled streets and view buildings from the 13th century. At the end of the day, head to the island of Sodermalm, (known as “Soder”), which offers lots of fine dining options and a rocking night life.

Best Time to Travel

Peak Season:

Summer is the best time to see Stockholm in all its glory. Between June and August, the weather is warm, reaching up to 25 degrees Celsius, and the sun stays out virtually all day. Just remember to bring layers, as the temperature can drop dramatically in the evenings.

Shoulder Season:

Hotel prices and the cost of many tourist attractions drop in the spring, between March and May, and fall, September through November. This time of the year does bring slightly cooler temperatures though, so remember to pack accordingly.

Off Season:

If you love skiing or snowboarding, then score cheap flights to Stockholm between January and March. This is prime snow sport season, but do realize the city experiences darkness for up to 18 hours a day during the winter months.

Do you have any tips for my flight to Stockholm?
We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be breezing through airport security and having a ball in Stockholm in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane trip can be a cruisy experience if you bring the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletries, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare change of clothes and a good read. Secondly, leave space in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any daily medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow too. Lastly, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, knives, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by dressing in layers, and opt for closed-toe, flat shoes like sneakers.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Stockholm?
The trick is to be well organised before you get to security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Stockholm in a flash. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a flying start:

  • Security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn.
  • For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices will need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • There's a good chance you'll be required to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
