Finnair flights to Stockholm Bromma Airport
Finnair is increasing flights on the Stockholm Bromma route due to its popularity. From the start of the winter traffic season, Finnair will fly to Bromma three times per day instead of the present two flights.
Finnair passengers will be able to choose Bromma Airport, closer to downtown Stockholm and the Kista business area, where many international companies are located, as an alternative to the Swedish capital's main Arlanda airport.
“The new, fast connection will best serve business passengers who travel often between Helsinki and Stockholm. Bromma Airport is very efficient. It's possible to check in 15 minutes before departure, which shortens the overall travel time,” explains Finnair's Vice President Network Strategy and Traffic Planning Petteri Kostermaa.
In addition to Finnair, the company's Danish partner Sun-Air begins a daily service on the route. The cooperation between Finnair and Sun-Air also offers Swedish customers excellent connections to Asia. In addition to the Bromma route, Finnair flies 50 flights per week between Helsinki and Arlanda. Until 1962 Finnair's Stockholm flights landed at Bromma, before Arlanda Airport opened and international traffic was transferred there. Bromma applies very strict environmental and noise restrictions, which set high demands on the aircraft using the airport. Finnair will fly the Bromma route with modern Embraer aircraft.
