I’ve seen my fair share of airports over the years, but I’ve never frequented the same ones as much as I do now. Every week I fly from Malmö Airport to Arlanda (Stockholm) and back again. It’s on autopilot for me now, from the moment I get in the car to when I step off the airport train in Stockholm, and then the same in reverse going back home.

Friday afternoons are generally quite busy at Arlanda. The lounges are full and noisy, there’s people in queues everywhere, and all you want to do is get home. Yesterday wasn’t like that, apparently Sweden hasn’t woken up from the holidays yet. I don’t think I’ve ever seen the domestic terminal this calm. Next week will be a whole different matter, I presume.
