Where do you park to pick someone up at Arlanda Terminal 5?
Where to park, when to arrive and where to wait at Terminal 5.
Short answer
At Arlanda Terminal 5, follow the signs to Terminal 5 and park in the Pick up & Drop off car park, about 50–100 metres from the terminal. Swedavia lists the zone at SEK 100 per hour, with a minimum of 30 minutes and a maximum of one hour, and recommends arriving 30 minutes after landing.
Why
- Swedavia states that you should follow the road signs to Terminal 5 and then go to the Parking Pick up & Drop off (Hämta & Lämna), about 50–100 metres from the terminal.
- According to Swedavia, short-term parking is also available in the multi-storey car parks closest to the terminal, charged per started hour at the same fee as the Pick up car park.
- Swedavia asks pick-up drivers to wait outside the arrivals hall and asks that only arriving passengers come inside the terminal.
Details
Confirm the airline, flight number and landing time beforehand, and follow the flight in the Swedavia app or through the Messenger icon under arrivals. Swedavia's price list gives the Pick up & Drop off zone at Terminal 5 as SEK 100 per hour, with a minimum of 30 minutes and a maximum of one hour. Arriving passengers may spend time at baggage claim and customs, see what to declare to customs at Arlanda and Arlanda and its alternatives.
Tip
Do not arrive too early: passengers face baggage waiting times and, on flights from outside Europe, border control, so use the app to follow the arrival time.
What may differ
Flights from outside Europe need a longer wait (45 minutes after landing instead of 30), and Terminal 2 has its own Parking Pick up & Drop off that you reach by following the signs to Terminal 2.
Common misconception
Everyone meeting a passenger should wait inside the arrivals hall.
What actually happens
Swedavia asks pick-up drivers to wait outside the arrivals hall and asks that only arriving passengers come inside the terminal, to avoid crowding.
