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. This new route ensures travelers have a premium
yet budget-friendly choice on one of the most in-demand long-haul routes. Our
modern Boeing 787 Dreamliners, combined with exceptional service from our crew,
deliver affordable and comfortable flights to cost-conscious travelers, making
global connections more accessible, seamless, and enjoyable for everyone, says
Bjørn Tore Larsen, CEO and Founder of Norse Atlantic Airways.
Passengers will fly on modern Boeing 787 Dreamliners, designed to offer a
relaxed and comfortable travel experience, with each seat including personal,
state-of-the-art entertainment systems. Our Norse Premium cabin seats feature an
industry-leading 43" seat pitch and 12" recline, providing generous space to

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.
