Swedavia’s ten airports saw a 2% overall increase in passenger traffic in September 2024 compared to the same month in 2023. The growth was driven primarily by a 4% rise in international travel, while domestic travel dipped by 3%. Stockholm Arlanda and Göteborg Landvetter led in international traffic growth, increasing by 6% and 5%, respectively.

Swedavia’s President and CEO, Jonas Abrahamsson, highlighted the strategic focus on consolidating domestic traffic at Arlanda, emphasising its importance for long-term connectivity and Swedish competitiveness.

Despite the overall decline in domestic travel, airports like Kiruna and Ronneby saw positive domestic trends. In total, over 3 million passengers flew via Swedavia’s airports in September, reaching 82% of pre-pandemic levels. Arlanda served 90% of its pre-pandemic passengers, while Göteborg Landvetter reached 81%.
