About Stockholm Västerås Airport
Stockholm Västerås Airport is a small international airport serving the city of Västerås and the wider Västmanland and Mälardalen region in central Sweden. The site dates back to the early 1930s, when it was established as a military airbase, and it opened to civil aviation in 1976.
The airport lies roughly 6 km from the centre of Västerås and about 100 km west of central Stockholm. It is used mainly by Ryanair, which operates scheduled services to London Stansted along with seasonal leisure flights, alongside general aviation and flight training.
Travellers can reach Västerås by taxi or local bus in about 10–15 minutes, while Flygbussarna coaches run between the airport and Stockholm Cityterminalen. Västerås Central station also offers regional and InterCity train connections to Stockholm and other cities.
The single terminal is compact and easy to navigate, with a café, a shop, free Wi-Fi, currency exchange, car rental desks and short- and long-term parking. Its small size makes the airport a convenient, low-stress gateway for the region.
