Arlanda to Löwenströmska Hospital: Arriving for Treatment or a Visit

Updated 3 min read

Landing at Arlanda to head straight to Löwenströmska hospital in Upplands Väsby — whether for your own treatment or to visit someone — is a different kind of trip from an ordinary arrival. You may be tired, unwell, or carrying medical paperwork you don't want to fumble with, and the practical details that make it easier are worth sorting out before you fly rather than working them out at the kerb.

This guide covers choosing the right entrance, telling us about any mobility needs at booking, and allowing for waiting if collecting bags takes longer than usual.

Choosing the right entrance

Hospitals typically have more than one entrance depending on the department, and Löwenströmska is no exception — give the specific department or entrance you need when you book, if you know it, rather than just 'the hospital'. It's a small detail that saves being dropped at the wrong side of a large building when you're not feeling your best.

Flagging mobility needs at booking

If you or the person travelling has mobility needs — using a wheelchair, moving more slowly, needing extra time and assistance getting in or out of the car — mention it when you book. It helps us confirm the right vehicle and lets the driver plan for a bit more time at both ends of the journey rather than a standard, brisk pickup.

Allowing for waiting if bags are slow

Every pickup includes free waiting time once the driver confirms arrival, which is worth knowing about if you're travelling for a medical reason and moving through the terminal more slowly than usual — collecting bags, finding a wheelchair if needed, or simply taking things at your own pace. It's there as a buffer, not something you need to rush against.

  • Free waiting time on every pickup, from when the driver confirms arrival
  • Mobility needs confirmed at booking, not discovered at the kerb
  • Flight tracked on arrival, so the pickup follows your actual landing time

The rest of the trip

We track your flight and the pickup follows the actual landing time, and your driver's name, phone number and licence plate are sent before pickup, so meeting them in the arrivals hall is straightforward even if you're moving slowly or carrying paperwork you'd rather not shuffle through while also searching for a car.

None of this needs to be arranged through a separate process — it's all handled through the same booking notes as any other request, whether that's a specific entrance, extra time, or simply letting the driver know that today isn't an ordinary arrival.

Questions people ask before booking

Can I specify which entrance or department at Löwenströmska I need?

Yes — give the specific entrance or department when you book, if you know it, rather than just the hospital's name.

How do I request help if I have mobility needs?

Mention it in your booking notes so we can confirm the right vehicle and give the driver time to plan for it.

What if I need extra time getting through the airport because of a medical condition?

Every pickup includes free waiting time once the driver confirms arrival, which gives some buffer if you're moving more slowly than usual.

Does the pickup adjust if my flight is delayed?

Yes — we track your flight and your pickup follows the actual landing time.

Is there an extra charge for requesting mobility assistance?

The price is set by the route and vehicle category — mentioning mobility needs helps us plan the right vehicle, it doesn't add a separate charge.
