How do you get from Skavsta airport to Stockholm?
Coach, train and taxi options from Skavsta, with travel time and fares.
Short answer
The main way from Skavsta to Stockholm is the Vy flygbussarna airport coach to Stockholm Cityterminalen, which takes about 80 minutes, with fares from SEK 229. Skavsta is about 100 km from Stockholm. FlixBus also stops near the terminal, and a train is possible from Nyköping station, 7 km from the airport.
Why
- Skavsta says Vy flygbussarna runs the route Skavsta-Stockholm Cityterminalen, and Visit Stockholm gives the travel time as 80 minutes.
- Vy flygbussarna shows fares from 229 kronor for Skavsta-Stockholm and says the Skavsta stop is directly outside the terminal building.
- Skavsta says the local train station in Nyköping is 7 km from the airport, reachable by taxi or local bus 515.
Details
Tickets for the coach are sold online and in the app, at the ticket desks at Cityterminalen and the airport, and on board, but the bus does not accept cash. Cityterminalen is connected to Stockholm Central Station by walkways and lifts. FlixBus uses the stop Verkstadsskolan, a couple of hundred metres from the terminal. A taxi can be pre-booked online.

What may differ
The fare on the Flygbussarna page is a starting price, so the cost for your date and ticket type can differ, and departures follow the flight schedule.
Common misconception
