How do you get from Landvetter airport to Malmö?
The two-step route from Landvetter to Malmö, and how Öresundståg tickets work.
Short answer
From Landvetter to Malmö you take the airport coach to Göteborg C, about 40 minutes, and then a train such as the Öresundståg, which runs from Gothenburg to Malmö. Öresundståg tickets cannot be bought on the train, and since 4 June 2024 it is not possible to book a seat on it.
Why
- Vy flygbussarna says the airport coach takes approximately 40 minutes from Gothenburg C and runs from Landvetter Airport to Gothenburg C.
- Öresundståg says its trains take you from Gothenburg, Kalmar and Karlskrona in the north, and its timetables include Göteborg-Halmstad-Helsingborg-Malmö-Köpenhamn.
- Öresundståg says tickets cannot be bought on the train and that ticket machines are available at every Swedish station where its trains call.
Details
The sources checked do not give a journey time or fare for Gothenburg-Malmö, so look up your own departure in Öresundståg's web booking, which the timetable page recommends for current times. Öresundståg also continues across the Öresund Bridge, and Swedish border control of passengers entering Sweden affects that crossing. For the Copenhagen side, see train to Copenhagen and Malmö.
Tip
Buy the train ticket before you board, and allow time for the connection at Göteborg C, since the coach arrives at the Nils Ericson Terminal next to the station. To compare the whole trip with flying into other airports, see how to find cheap flights from Sweden.
What may differ
Train times and the timetable period change during the year; Öresundståg publishes separate timetables for different periods.
Common misconception

What actually happens
Öresundståg says that from 4 June 2024 it is not possible to book a seat ticket on its trains.
