Hi fellow pilots at Arlanda
I'll use this topic to keep you updated on

I'll start up with some facts about the airport:

60 airlines fly international routes
10 airlines fly both international and domestic routes
2 airlines fly domestic routes

A total of  167 destinations are served from Arlanda:
135 destinations international and 32 destinations domestic.

These airlines flew a total of  17.5million passengers in 2006, out of
those 12.2millions travelled internationally and 5.3million domestic.

It was a total of 227000 aircraft movements of those 135000 international

Some more news, the weekend 26-27th of May, Solvalla trottingcourt will stage it's annual Elitloppet.
This will attract some special Cargo comming in over Arlanda, horses are flown in for the race from the  United States and Australia at least, and maybe some from Italy and France.
This isn't a very normal cargo to carrie aboard aircraft.

We can expect increased demand on the Swedish domestic network, aswel from Norway, Denmark and Finland. Inbound on the dates 25-26th of May and outbound on 27-28th og May

If you wish to see some info about Elitloppet check out this link: Solvalla Elitloppet

Tomorrow all routes operated by Scandinavian Airlines Sweden is cancelled by the airline, due to high risk of strikes from the 25th of May.
SAS Sweden justify this by, not wanting to get pasengers stuck in places they can get another flight from.

So this is our chanse at Arlanda to show what a great airline Euroharmony is:]
As plenty of people needs to get flights with other carriers because of this.

So let's fly all the ones who want's to get there for the Elitlopps weekend, or those who just want's to get where they need to be.
