About 4 kilometers south of the city core of ume is Airport (UME), a tiny but effective airport that serves as Scandinavian Airlines UME Terminal . UME Terminal, one of Sweden's largest airlines, offers convenient access to both domestic and international locations along with frequent and dependable flights, mostly to Stockholm Arlanda (ARN). The main terminal area houses all SAS check-in facilities, including self-service kiosks and manned desks. To minimize time at the airport, travelers are advised to check in online or on their mobile device 30 hours before departure. It is advisable to arrive early because the luggage drop shuts thirty minutes prior to takeoff.
