Stockholm: airport and connection to city
I’ve shown you the Stockholm metro in detail.
But I’ve got a lot more from Stockholm. Today it’s the airport and the connection to the city.
Arrivals:
It’s a great idea to point to the next restroom in the narrow hallway:
In the baggage claim area there is a nice advertisement for the express buses to the city:
Swedish is white, English is yellow. Customs has two spaces:
Passage to another terminal:
Stairs to the boarding gates. Curiously, the arrows and exit numbers are yellow, not white:
But I had to go to the city, and the express bus didn’t appeal to me. It turned out to be cheaper and more interesting to get there by regular transportation, not a dedicated airport service. I took a bus to a place called Märsta, then a commuter train from there.
Outside the airport:

Bus 583 to Märsta:

A bus stop in Märsta:
The commuter train station next to it:
The trains await at the platform:
A sign:
The door doesn’t open automatically. A funny character points to the button from above:
Inside the train:
There’s an ad in the transportation system style here, too, like I’ve shown on metro trains before. Nice:
The “don’t sit with your feet on the other seat” icon:
I got off at Stockholm’s Central Station and some people went further on. Now the character points to the button from below:
After three days in Stockholm, I went back to the airport — this time, on the very bus from the ad. It runs from the Central Station as well. The boarding gate has automatic doors:
Departures:

The pictures are from the trip in June 2016.
