Norse Atlantic Airways Expands to Stockholm Arlanda Airport with New Direct Route to Bangkok

Norse Atlantic Airways is set to establish a significant presence at Stockholm Arlanda Airport (ARN), launching a direct route to Bangkok (BKK) ahead of the winter 2025 season, further strengthening its global network.

The new route will connect Sweden and Thailand with affordable and comfortable long-haul flights, marking a key milestone in advancing connectivity between the two nations for passenger travel. In addition, the route will also serve as a critical link in the supply chain, with cargo including technology exports and other goods benefitting from faster delivery times.   

Starting on October 29, 2025, Norse Atlantic Airways will operate this route twice weekly, on Wednesdays and Sundays, flying state-of-the-art Boeing 787 Dreamliners, with seating for 338 passengers, offering both Premium and Economy Class options.

With one-way fares starting from 2,550 SEK including all taxes, passengers can enjoy exceptional comfort, outstanding onboard service, and seamless travel to one of the world’s most popular long-haul destinations. Tickets are now available on www.flynorse.com.

- There is great confidence in the Swedish air travel market and Norse’s investment in a direct route from Stockholm Arlanda Airport to Bangkok Suvarnabhumi Int'l is a clear sign of this. Norse will play an important role in connecting Sweden to Thailand. Swedavia’s main goal is to increase the connectivity, and this addition to the airports overall offer further facilitates for people to meet, whether it is for business, leisure or to visit family and friends, says Jonas Abrahamsson, president and CEO of Swedavia.

- With our entry in Sweden and the launch of our Stockholm-Bangkok route, Norse Atlantic Airways is redefining long-haul travel, challenging a market long dominated by legacy carriers.

Swedavia’s work for fossil-free aviation

Swedavia has carried out ambitious climate work for many years. All ten of its airports achieved the goal of zero fossil carbon dioxide emissions from their own operations by year-end 2020. Swedavia also works actively to promote the switch to sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) and has the goal that five per cent of all fuel used for refueling at Swedish airports shall be fossil-free by 2025. Swedavia’s climate transition work and its pioneering work to operate climate-smart airports have won international awards, and in 2021 the trade organization Airports Council International (ACI) named Stockholm Arlanda Airport Eco-Innovation Airport of the Year. Swedavia offers all passengers flying from one of Swedavia’s airports the option to purchase SAF for all or part of their journey via flygreenfund.se/swedavia.

Swedavia is a group that owns, operates and develops 10 airports throughout Sweden. Our role is to create the connectivity that Sweden needs to facilitate travel, business and meetings. Satisfied and safe travelers are the foundation of Swedavia's business. Swedavia is a world leader in the development of airports with the least possible climate impact. Since 2020, Swedavia's own airport operations have been fossil-free at all ten airports. The group's turnover in 2023 was approximately SEK 5.9  billion and approximately 2,600 employees.
