HOLIDAYMAKERS landing at Scandinavian Mountains Airport in Sweden can take a sleigh or a snowmobile to their hotel.
Located in the Scandinavian Mountains in Sweden, Scandinavian Mountains Airport, which is also known as Sälen Trysil Airport, has a rather unusual transfer feature.
Holidaymakers touching down at the Swedish airport can ditch the coach in favour of a dog sled or a snowmobile ride to their hotel.
The transfers can be booked via several airport partners.
These companies will transport luggage, while holidaymakers arrive to the hotel in style.
Scandinavian Airlines operates direct flights from London Heathrow to Scandinavian Mountains Airport.
Flights will operate on selected Sundays in February and April, with Sun Online Travel finding one-way fares from £67 per person.
Located in the middle of Sweden‘s largest alpine ski area, the newly-built airport is well-connected to plenty of ski resorts.
One of those is Sälen, which is the largest ski resort in the country.
And because of its proximity to the Norwegian border, the travel hub is also well-placed as a transfer option for Trysil – Norway‘s largest ski resort.
The region surrounding the airport has four ski resorts that have more than 100,000 beds in hotels, apartments and cottages.
There are thought to be around 250 slopes in the area too, making it a dream destination for skiers and snowboarders.

AN airport has become popular online because of its pink Barbie-like buildings.
Bonaire Airport in Kralendijk in the Caribbean Netherlands is nicknamed ‘Flamingo airport’ due to its unusual decor.
The outside of the building looks something like a Barbie toy, with the whole building, including the control tower, painted to suit the colour scheme.
The check in desks, security desks and duty free areas all match too, making it a fully immersive pink experience.
The airport is one of several celebrations of the island’s best known inhabitants, the flamingos, which can be seen on various locations throughout Bonaire.
Meanwhile, these are some of the best and worst airports to visit in the UK.
