Friday, June 14, 2024 Air Canada, a founding member of Star Alliance and the leading provider of scheduled passenger services to and from Canada, has solidified its presence at Stockholm Arlanda Airport with direct routes to Toronto and Montreal. This establishment is crucial not only for travelers looking to visit loved ones or discover new destinations but also for the numerous Swedish businesses operating in Canada and across North America. Given Sweden’s significant role in trade and exports, seamless connectivity is essential for expedited delivery of critical goods such as technology and pharmaceuticals, supporting various industries and companies alike.
I am very happy to welcome Air Canada to Stockholm Arlanda Airport. Air Canada’s establishment at Stockholm Arlanda shows a great understanding of Stockholm’s central role as an important hub in the region, says Jonas Abrahamsson , president and CEO of Swedavia. Air Canada’s investment strengthens Swedish connectivity and further improves our offer of destinations at the airport, both for those traveling for business or to visit friends and family.
The relationship between Canada and Sweden has a long-standing history and the two countries have a lot of interdependencies. The new routes served by Air Canada will create an excellent connectivity which I think will benefit the market enormously, he said. These new direct flights bring Canada and Sweden closer together.
They will allow friends and family to connect.
