On Friday (November 22, 2024), Norse Atlantic Airways announced the launch of new direct service between Stockholm Arlanda Airport (ARN) and Bangkok (BKK), Thailand.

Also commenting on Norse’s Arlanda Airport expansion, airport operator Swedavia’s President and CEO, Jonas Abrahamsson, added,
“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.
