Peak season:

Cheap flights to Stockholm can be difficult to find between May until the middle of September. This is the busiest and most popular season in Sweden, so make sure you secure your flight tickets well in advance. There are many museums which are open until late during the summer thanks to the long days, and many tourists flock to attend the many events and festivals that take place. The most popular of these include the Pride Festival, the Stockholm Marathon and the Volvo Baltic Race. There are also many jazz festivals to tingle your ears throughout the peak period. Keep in mind that all of the events will seriously increase the price of your flight tickets, so book your flights to Stockholm as early as you can if you want to attend them. June the 6th is a massive day too, as it is National Swedish Day. There’s a great celebration throughout the entire day but you’ll find accommodation a lot more expensive around this time.

Off season:

Winter in Stockholm is a season best avoided as there is typically only one hour of sunlight in January, and around three hours in February. This causes the temperatures to be very cold, making Sweden close down for tourism except for the winter-sport lovers. You’ll find the cheapest flights to Stockholm during the winter though, so if you aren’t too fussed about the weather or the daylight, you can grab a bargain.

When is the best time to book flights to Stockholm?

January all the way to early May typically provides the cheapest flights to Stockholm, so once you’ve decided on a month, aim to secure your flight tickets 2 months earlier.

If you can be flexible with your dates then you’ll give yourself the highest chance of finding the cheapest flights to Stockholm, however this could be during the winter which can be very dark and cold for the most part.
