When the decision was made to form Swedavia, there were 16 nationally owned airports, but it was a part of the decision to transfer six of them to local owners and keep ten large airports.Region Värmland took over the operations ofKarlstad Airport in 2010.[6] In 2011, the operations forÄngelholm-Helsingborg Airport was transferred toRegion Skåne Nordväst[7] andÖrnsköldsvik Airport was transferred toÖrnsköldsvik Municipality.[8] In 2013Sundsvall Airport was transferred to local owners.Jönköping Airport andSkellefteå Airport were transferred to local ownership 2009/2010 before Swedavia was formed.
In December 2024, Swedavia communicated to theSwedish government that it no longer sees a viable future forStockholm Bromma Airport, citing persistently low capacity utilisation and a lack of financial justification for its continued operation.[9] Bromma Airport’s continued operations are estimated to cost at least one billionSEK(€87 million) annually for Swedavia,[10] with the costs of operating Bromma subsidised by passenger fees other Swedavia airports.[11]
