Storm Anna's heavy snow has led to 17 canceled departures and about 70 delays at Stockholm Arlanda on Friday, with similar issues expected over the weekend. Gothenburg Landvetter reports around 10 delays, as SMHI warnings persist until Sunday.
Building on earlier reports of Storm Anna's widespread impacts—including power outages in Gävleborg and road closures—aviation has faced major disruptions. At Arlanda, Swedavia reports 17 departures canceled and roughly 70 flights to/from delayed on January 2, 2026.
"We assess that the traffic situation over the weekend will be the same as today (Friday), with delays that may occur due to the snowstorm," says Charlie Forsberg, Swedavia's communications director.
Landvetter has seen about 10 departures and arrivals delayed. The storm has also hit Amsterdam Schiphol, canceling numerous flights Friday with hundreds more affected Saturday. Travelers should check flight status in advance.
