Flights

FLIGHTS TO/FROM SWEDEN & KIRUNA Why don‘t we include airfare in this tour? We do not include airfare in most of our tours because we find that you can save money by booking your flights directly with the airlines. This also allows you to take advantage of the airlines’ air-miles or frequent flyer programs. Although we generally do not book international flights for customers, our travel consultants can offer guidance if needed. Getting to Kiruna in Swedish Lapland To get to Swedish Lapland, you must first fly to Stockholm, Sweden’s capital. Several international airlines service the Stockholm-Arlanda Airport, Sweden’s largest international hub. From Stockholm, you then need to book a connecting flight to Kiruna Airport, Swedish Lapland’s main airport. For long-distance travellers, we recommend a one-night stopover in Stockholm to relax before continuing to Kiruna.
