How the airport pickup works
Enter your flight number when you book and we follow the aircraft — early or late, the pickup moves with it at no extra cost. Your driver meets you inside the terminal once you have your luggage, and you pay in the car by card or cash. Then it is a direct run to Lidingö.
The route from Arlanda to Lidingö
E4 south, east across Norra länken and over the Lidingö bridge at Ropsten — the bridge is the only way on and off the island.
The journey covers roughly 42 km and takes about 42 minutes in normal traffic. We check live traffic before setting off, so the arrival time you are given already accounts for the road at that hour.
Getting to Lidingö without a car
Three legs: Arlanda Express or bus to the centre, the red line out to Ropsten, then the Lidingöbanan or a bus across the bridge. Each change is fine on its own; together with luggage they are the reason people stop doing it.
About Lidingö
Lidingö is a green residential island connected to the mainland by bridge at Ropsten, best known internationally for the Lidingöloppet cross-country race and Millesgården sculpture garden. Public transport means a metro ride plus a change, so a direct car is a noticeably shorter journey with bags.
Lidingö is a green residential island joined to the mainland by a single bridge at Ropsten. Everything on and off goes over that bridge, so the island's traffic is predictable in a way the city's is not — but it also means there is no second route when you are running late.
Who travels this route
Residents flying for work, visitors to Millesgården, and the runners who arrive each autumn for Lidingöloppet.

Arlanda to Lidingö — frequently asked questions
Where does the driver meet me at Arlanda?
Inside your terminal — 2, 4 or 5 — once you have your luggage. You get an SMS with the driver's name, number and the car's registration before you land.
What happens if my flight is delayed?
Enter your flight number when you book. We track it, so the pickup moves with the aircraft and delays cost you nothing extra.

Roughly 42 km and about 42 minutes in normal traffic. Your fixed price appears in the form above as soon as you enter the address — the same price by day, night, weekend or holiday, paid in the car by card or cash.
Do you cross the bridge to any address on Lidingö?
Yes, the whole island — Lidingö Centrum, Bodal, Larsberg, Gångsätra, Skärsätra, Käppala and the residential streets between them. It is one fixed price from Arlanda regardless of how far east on the island you are.
Is Lidingö difficult to reach on public transport with luggage?
It is three separate legs — train or bus to the centre, metro to Ropsten, then across the bridge. That is two changes with your bags, which is the specific problem this route solves.
