Straight comparisons

Two at a time, with the size where the answer flips

On arrival at Gothenburg Airport

From the arrivals hall to each way in
Finding the stop

The buses leave from numbered stops outside the terminal; the airport's screens show which bus leaves from where. Vy Flygbussarna uses stop 1, Västtrafik's 612 the Landvetter flygplats stop outside the check-in hall, and FlixBus stop 5.

Tickets

Buy Västtrafik tickets for the 612 and X6 in the Västtrafik To Go app, on board the 612, or at Pressbyrån and 7-Eleven; FlixBus and Vy Flygbussarna tickets online or in their apps, for the lowest price. Swedavia advises buying ahead, as buying on board is not always possible.

The taxi rank

Follow the signs for approved taxis. Their companies charge at most SEK 725 for up to four, SEK 1,045 for five to eight, to one address in central Gothenburg; ask the driver which price applies before you start. Never take a ride offered inside the arrivals hall.

Uber and Bolt

Uber picks up at Landvetter: request the ride after you land, or reserve one ahead, and the app gives directions to the pickup point.

At night

The last 612 leaves at 23:51 on weekdays and 23:55 at weekends, meeting the 00:10 X6 into town. Vy Flygbussarna runs later still toward town, with departures as late as 01:45 some nights, though not continuously.

Buy two zones, AB, until 22 November 2026. A zone A ticket, which is what tapping a bank card buys, does not cover the airport until 23 November.

The 612 ends at Landvetter, a village 16 minutes from the airport; the X6 from there is the leg into Gothenburg.

The X6's drivers sell no tickets. Buy in the app or from the 612's driver before you change.

The most an approved taxi may charge from the airport to one address inside the price zone, which covers central Gothenburg. Companies may charge less; outside the zone the meter runs on from its edge.

SEK 725 is a ceiling, not a set fare: ask the driver which price applies before you set off, and choose any approved car, not just the first in line.

Only approved taxis are held to it. A driver offering a ride inside the arrivals hall is not, and may charge far more.

Hisingen, north of the river, is outside the zone; the meter runs from the zone's edge.
