Accessibility on Arlanda express

We want everyone to enjoy a smooth and comfortable journey. Below is everything you need to know about how we facilitate travel for passengers using wheelchairs, those requiring assistance, or those traveling with assistance dogs.

Traveling with a wheelchair or powerchair

Our trains and platforms are level, making boarding and disembarking easy.

  • Ramps: If you would like extra support, simply ask our staff to deploy a ramp between the train and the platform.

  • Priority Spaces: Dedicated spaces for wheelchairs and powerchairs are located in one of the middle carriages of every train. An accessible toilet is also located nearby.

  • At Arlanda: Lifts are available to take you directly between the platform and the airport terminals.

Companion discounts

We offer free travel for companions. While passengers with disabilities pay the standard fare, one companion is always welcome to travel with you free of charge.
