How to reach Kiruna

Kiruna is accessed easily from Stockholm by overnight train (discounted student tickets available) or plane. A direct flight takes 90 minutes and both SAS and Norwegian fly the route, check for youth tickets. The Kiruna airport is just 10km from the old town centre and there is an airport bus connection. It is not uncommon to experience delays of both trains and planes in the winter in northern Sweden due to adverse weather so it is advisable to arrive in good time for the training course to avoid disappointment and at the latest the day before. This will also increase the probability of seeing the aurora during your stay.
