  Overnight layover guide: sleeping options in the public area and the boarding area

 
Please note that published services and schedules may change. If you plan to spend the night in the public area, have a plan B in case the airport only allows passengers with an upcoming flight to stay inside.
 

Malmö Airport is a small and quiet terminal that remains open 24 hours a day, allowing travellers to stay overnight inside while waiting for early morning flights or connections in a safe environment.

Where to rest

As the departure area usually closes after the last flight of the night, most passengers who choose to stay overnight must remain in the public area. In this zone, particularly in the central hall and near the café outlets, you will find some benches and armless seats that allow for lying down.

Temperature and Noise: It is advisable to bring a blanket or warm clothing, as the terminal tends to become quite cold during the early hours. Although the airport is generally quiet, earplugs can help reduce noise from night cleaning operations.

Food and Night Services

Food and Drink: There are no restaurants or cafés operating 24 hours a day. During the night, the only available option is vending machines offering snacks, sandwiches and drinks throughout the terminal.

Luggage: At present, the airport does not offer a left luggage service. Therefore, it is essential to keep your belongings secure and remain attentive to your surroundings.

Connectivity: Free Wi-Fi access is available for 3 hours. If you plan a longer stay, note that once the complimentary time expires you will need to reconnect under a paid option or use your mobile data.

Accommodation Alternatives

If you are looking for greater comfort and privacy, the Sturup Airport Hotel is located just a few metres from the terminal, within walking distance, and offers full services for short stays or overnight layovers.

Other 24-hour services: ATMs, nursing rooms and children’s play areas remain accessible throughout the night in the public area.
