The Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT), together with Swedavia and Norse Atlantic Airways, celebrated the launch of the airline’s first nonstop service between Stockholm and Bangkok on 22 October at Stockholm Arlanda Airport. The new long‑haul connection links Northern Europe with Southeast Asia for the 2025/2026 winter schedule.
The opening ceremony was led by Karl Eklund, director of Stockholm Arlanda Airport, and Bård Nordhagen, chief commercial officer of Norse Atlantic Airways, alongside Patsalinn Swetarat, director of TAT’s Stockholm office, and representatives of the Royal Thai Embassy in Stockholm. After a ribbon‑cutting and photo session, flight 338 departed from Terminal 5, check‑in counter 90, at 16:00 CET with a full load of 338 passengers.
This route is one of three direct Norse Atlantic services to Thailand – the other two being Stockholm‑Phuket and Oslo‑Phuket – and joins the airline’s additional winter launches from London Gatwick and Manchester, bringing the total to five new long‑haul connections to Thailand this season.
