A Two-City Business Trip: Stockholm and Uppsala in One Visit
Updated 3 min read
Stockholm and Uppsala are close enough — under an hour apart by road — that a single business trip covering meetings in both is entirely normal, but it does mean two distinct legs of travel rather than one: getting from Arlanda to wherever your first meeting is, and then moving between the two cities at some point in your schedule.
This guide covers how to book that as two clean, separately priced legs rather than trying to force it into one journey, and how the receipts land if the trip is billed to your company.

Why it's two bookings, not one
Arlanda sits roughly between Stockholm and Uppsala, which makes the airport a genuinely convenient midpoint rather than a detour for either city — but it also means your itinerary has a natural break where one journey ends and the next begins. Book the arrival leg from Arlanda to your first stop, and book the Stockholm–Uppsala (or Uppsala–Stockholm) leg separately once you know the timing of your meetings, rather than trying to specify a multi-stop route in one booking.
Sequencing around your meetings
Most two-city trips land at Arlanda, head to whichever city has the first meeting, and travel to the second city on a specific afternoon or the next morning once the schedule is confirmed. Because each leg is a separate fixed-price booking, you're not locked into a route decided weeks earlier — book the inter-city leg once your meeting times are set, which is often only firm a day or two ahead.
If your return flight departs from Arlanda after the Uppsala leg, that's a third booking — the departure transfer — which again can be booked separately once your final meeting's likely end time is clear.
What the inter-city leg actually looks like
Book the Stockholm–Uppsala leg as a custom point-to-point journey, entering your meeting address in each city directly rather than a general city name — a driver working from a specific address gets you to the right building or office, not just the right town. The fixed price for this leg is shown and agreed before you book, based on the actual route between your two addresses.
Receipts across a two-city trip
Choose the company receipt option on each of the trip's bookings — the arrival, the inter-city leg, and the eventual departure — so every leg produces its own receipt made out to your employer with the price and VAT line shown. A two-city day ends up as two or three clean, individually traceable receipts rather than one figure covering a journey with more than one distinct part to it.

Questions people ask before booking
Can I book Arlanda to Stockholm, then Stockholm to Uppsala, in a single booking?
No — each leg is booked separately with its own fixed price, since the custom point-to-point booking is for one route at a time. Book the arrival leg first, then the inter-city leg once your meeting schedule is set.
Is the price different for the Stockholm–Uppsala leg than for an airport transfer?
Each route has its own fixed price shown before you book, based on that specific journey — you'll see the exact figure for the inter-city leg when you enter it.
How far in advance do I need to book the inter-city leg?
You can book it once your meeting timing is confirmed, even if that's only a day or two before — there's no need to lock it in at the same time as the airport leg.
Can each leg have its own company receipt?
Yes — choose the company receipt option on each booking, and each leg produces its own receipt with the price and VAT line for that specific journey.
Does the departure transfer from Arlanda need booking separately too?
Yes — that's a third leg, booked once your final meeting's likely finish time is clear.
