We’re seeing some major price drops for flights to Sweden. This latest deal has flights to the Swedish capital, Stockholm, for less than $400 in some instances. That’s a big discount from the average $700-plus fares.
The very best prices we found were through Scandinavian Airlines, commonly known as SAS. British Airways also has some nice discounts on flights to Stockholm, too, depending on your departure cities. This sale involves U.S. cities Atlanta, Boston, Miami and Newark.
The travel window is for flights between November and early 2025. Most itineraries all include layovers, although we found a few nonstops at incredible prices that we spotlight below. This deal also involves basic economy tickets. That means you get a free carry-on, but checked luggage will cost between $50-$75 each way.
