How can I find cheap flights from Sweden?

What Konsumentverket and Swedavia say about comparing, baggage, fees and refunds.

Answered at: Checked at:

Short answer

Konsumentverket advises comparing the prices that different airlines offer and checking what the ticket or booking includes before you buy a flight. No official Swedish source checked names a best day or month to book, so none is given here. Swedavia says baggage rules and some check-in fees are set by each airline.

Why

  1. According to Konsumentverket, you should ask what is included in the ticket or booking and compare the prices that different companies offer.
  2. According to Konsumentverket, there is no statutory right of withdrawal when you book a flight, and a non-refundable ticket gives no money back if you cancel, although flight tax and some fees can be reclaimed.
  3. According to Swedavia, the maximum size of hand baggage and the maximum weight of checked baggage vary by airline, and some airlines charge extra for check-in at the airport.

Details

Under Swedish price information rules the price shown to consumers online should be the total price including VAT, and extra fees must be stated clearly, according to Konsumentverket (a general rule, not specific to flights). With separate bookings you may not get compensation if you miss a connecting flight, while one booking for the whole journey may give compensation if a leg is delayed. Flights inside the country are covered in domestic flights and airports in Sweden.

Tip

Before you pay, check what the fare includes, especially baggage, because the rules differ by airline. If you connect between flights, one booking for the whole journey protects you better than separate ones. For shopping when you fly out, see how duty free works when flying out of Sweden.

What may differ

Baggage rules and check-in fees differ by airline, so two fares to the same place can include different things, according to Swedavia.

Common misconception

A flight booked online can be cancelled within a cooling-off period.

What actually happens

According to Konsumentverket, there is no statutory right of withdrawal when you book a flight, and a non-refundable ticket gives no money back if you cancel.
