Comment on the airlines SAS and BRA's announcement today

"This announcement means that domestic flights will be concentrated at Stockholm Arlanda Airport, which will create conditions for more efficent domestic air travel with better transfer possibilities in the long term. At the same time, Bromma Stockholm Airport will basically have no regular traffic, says Jonas Abrahamsson, Swedavia's President and CEO, and continues:

"We will now adapt our operations at the airport based on the new traffic structure. This will be carried out in close dialogue with employees affected by the change. Bromma is an efficient and well-maintained airport that is appreciated by many passengers. But it is no secret that the capacity utilisation at Bromma has been too low for several years. Concentrating air traffic at Stockholm Arlanda is therefore a natural step. This changes the conditions for the operation of Bromma and raises policy questions regarding the airport's future.
