Real fun with a competition again!

And some faraway guests, Oliver Frost and two Istvans from Hungary.
Very welcome!

Raunak and Thomas I count as Swedes :).

And then Hikmat Mursalzade from Azerbaijan. I happened to notice that he
also intends to compete in Denmark at the same time/date. It is some 700
kilometers between the two competitions so that may be hard.

Hi Guys,
We land at 21:20 on Friday on Skavsta. Staying in Stockholm, close to central station. We plan to go to Skogås by commuting train. We leave at Sunday night from Skavsta after competition.
What kind of ticket do you recommend for us? Should we buy something in advance?
Should we take the bus from Skavsta to Stockholm or is there anything better?

For the travel with commuting train you buy a "SL" card with "reskassa" (approx. travel cash).
You can both use the same single card. You load it in advance, I'll check the amount you need.
To / from Skavsta I have not the faintest idea, but I'll check that up too...

Yes, it seems the bus is best. Info about time-table, ticket price and where to buy tickets on
http://www.flygbussarna.se/en/skavsta

The SL-kort with reskassa you must pay/load in advance with at least 4 travels
Centralen - Skogås, each costs 37:50 = 150 SEK for one person.
So 300 SEK at least for two. (To and fro Saturday and Sunday). The card in itself costs 20 SEK I think.

There's a 72-hour card (for one person) which costs 230 SEK and then you may travel as much
as you want but I cannot see that you get much time for sightseeing so I don't recommend that.
