Sobre este Trap
At Arlanda, a few unlicensed or look-alike cars use names close to the big companies, and fares are set freely, so the first car in line may cost far more than another. Walk to the Approved Taxi signs outside arrivals, check the yellow price sticker in the window and ask for the fare before you leave. Within the airport zone approved taxis have a capped fare. Keep the meter receipt. Or take the train and skip the question.
