Where does the Arlanda Express stop in Stockholm?
Platforms, entrances and the stops at Arlanda.
Short answer
The Arlanda Express stops at one station in Stockholm, Stockholm Central Station, where it leaves from platforms 1 and 2, and it runs non-stop to the airport. At Arlanda it calls first at Arlanda South for Terminals 2, 3 and 4, and then at Arlanda North for Terminal 5.
Why
- Arlanda Express states that its trains depart from platforms 1 and 2 at Stockholm Central Station.
- According to Arlanda Express, there are no stops between Stockholm and Arlanda, and two stops at the airport: Arlanda South and Arlanda North.
- Arlanda Express gives two entrances to the platforms, at Kungsbron 1 and at the Vasaplan/Östra Järnvägsgatan 15 intersection.
Details
From the main Vasagatan entrance, go straight through the hall, use the escalators and continue all the way to the far right of the station for platforms 1–2. The platforms have their own departure lounge and a taxi terminal beside them. For the other stations in the city see train and underground stations in Stockholm, and for all options to the airport see Arlanda and its alternatives.
Tip
Use the entrance at Kungsbron 1 or at Vasaplan/Östra Järnvägsgatan 15, since both lead directly to the platforms. For a hotel near the airport after a late flight, see which hotels are at Arlanda airport.
What may differ
Which Arlanda stop to use depends on your terminal: Arlanda South serves Terminals 2, 3 and 4, and Arlanda North serves Terminal 5.
