Bromma Airport has limited operating hours compared to Arlanda. Most scheduled flights land before 10 PM, and the airport essentially shuts down overnight. But delays happen, and if your flight arrives later than planned, here is what you are working with.
What stops running and when
There is no longer an airport coach at all: Vy Flygbussarna withdrew the Bromma route on 24 December 2024 after traffic at the airport collapsed. Plenty of older guides still list it, so treat any mention of a Bromma airport bus as out of date.

Other destinations
What you have instead is tram line 31 (Tvärbanan) from the stop outside the terminal, which runs on an SL timetable that thins out late in the evening and stops overnight. Check sl.se for the last departure on the night you are actually landing — that single detail decides whether you walk to the tram or the taxi rank.
The terminal itself has minimal services after the last flights. The cafe and shops close. Staff presence drops. It is not a place you want to spend the night.
What still works
Taxis remain available. The rank outside arrivals usually has cars waiting for the last flights of the day. If no taxis are at the rank, you can call Taxi Stockholm (08-150 000) or Taxi Kurir (08-300 000). Response times are generally quick since Bromma is close to the city.
Uber and Bolt operate 24 hours in Stockholm. At night, there are fewer drivers, so wait times may be longer (5-15 minutes instead of the usual 3-5). Surge pricing sometimes applies late at night, but from Bromma the effect is usually mild since demand is low.
Pre-booked transfers work regardless of the hour. If you know your flight arrives late, booking in advance means someone is committed to meeting you. The driver monitors your flight and adjusts for delays. This is the least stressful option for late arrivals, especially if you are unfamiliar with Stockholm.
Pricing at night
Swedish taxi companies set their own rates and many run a higher evening or night tariff, but there is no regulated fare and no reliable figure we could print for a late ride into the city. The yellow comparative-price sticker on each car is on the window at 1 AM just as it is at midday — read it, or agree a fixed price and see it on the meter before you move. Rideshare apps may quote more during very late hours, though the Bromma-to-city distance is short enough that the effect is usually modest.
Pre-booked transfer prices do not change based on arrival time. The rate you see at booking is the rate you pay — which is most of the argument for booking one when you know you are landing late.
Safety considerations
Bromma is in a residential area of western Stockholm. The surroundings are safe, but there is nothing around the airport in terms of shops, restaurants, or hotels within walking distance. You need transport. Do not plan to walk into the city. It is technically possible but would take over an hour along roads not designed for pedestrians at night.
The practical approach
If you know your flight might arrive late at Bromma, book a transfer in advance, or check the last tram on line 31 before you fly. If you are already at the airport and it is late, grab a taxi from the rank or call one. The ride is short, the area is safe, and you will be in your hotel within 20 minutes regardless of which option you choose.
