Stockholm Arlanda Airport (IATA: ARN, ICAO: ESSA) is the main international airport serving Stockholm, the capital of Sweden. It is located in the Sigtuna Municipality of Sweden, near the town of Märsta, 37 km (23 mi) north[3] of Stockholm and nearly 40 km (25 mi) southeast of Uppsala. The airport is located within Stockholm County and the historic province of Uppland.
Arlanda is the largest airport in Sweden and the third-largest airport in the Nordic countries. The airport is the major gateway to international air travel for large parts of Sweden. Arlanda Airport was used by nearly 27 million passengers in 2017, with 21.2 million international passengers and 5.5 million domestic.[5] The facility covers an expanse of about 2,500 hectares (9.7 sq mi) of airport property.[6]
Stockholm Arlanda Airport is the larger of Stockholm's two airports. The other, Stockholm Bromma Airport, is located northwest of the city's centre but can be used only by smaller aircraft.
Two further airports outside of Stockholm County are also branded as Stockholm: Stockholm Skavsta Airport and Stockholm Västerås Airport, both located around 100 kilometres (60 mi) away from the Swedish capital. Stockholm Arlanda serves as a major hub for Scandinavian Airlines and Norwegian Air Shuttle.
