Transfer Sorsele

Pre-booked shuttle beats rental stress for Sorsele trips

Transfer Sorsele runs a shuttle link between Arvidsjaur Airport (AJR) and Sorsele, mainly serving fishing guests, snowmobile riders, and winter‑test staff who just need a seat, not a hire car. You book in advance, then meet the shuttle outside the small terminal after landing at AJR. Journey time isn’t officially listed, but the road distance Arvidsjaur–Sorsele is about 90 km, so plan on roughly 1–1.5 hours each way depending on winter conditions.

This is a single‑route shuttle, not a city network, so think point‑to‑point between AJR and Sorsele rather than flexible stops. Because AJR is a small regional field with limited flight banks, Transfer Sorsele typically times runs to match specific arrivals and departures. That means you want your flight number handy when you book, so they can line up pick‑up at the right time outside the main arrivals door.

There’s no published price list here, but as a rule of thumb in inland Lapland, expect a shared pre‑booked shuttle on a 90 km run to cost less than a one‑day car rental plus fuel from Arvidsjaur. Transfer Sorsele suits short stays where you head straight to accommodation or a test facility in Sorsele and don’t plan extra side trips. If you’re hauling rod tubes, ski bags, or winter‑test gear, confirm item counts and sizes when you reserve so they can match vehicle capacity.

How to use Transfer Sorsele step by step

• 1. Check your flight times: Look up your AJR arrival and departure times and note the airline and flight numbers before you do anything else.
• 2. Request the shuttle in advance: Contact Transfer Sorsele ahead of travel and book a seat for the Arvidsjaur–Sorsele run tied to your specific flight at AJR.
• 3. Confirm luggage and gear: Tell them if you’re bringing fishing rods, snowmobile helmets, or test equipment so they plan the right vehicle for the 90 km trip.
• 4. Get your meeting point details: Ask for the exact pickup spot outside the Arvidsjaur Airport terminal and note the driver or vehicle description.
• 5. On arrival at AJR: Collect your bag from the single baggage belt, then head straight to the agreed pickup area at the terminal front.
• 6. Pay as instructed: Settle payment in the format they specify when you booked, which may be card, invoice, or prepayment depending on your group or company.
• 7. For the return run: Book your Sorsele–AJR ride to arrive at least 60–75 minutes before departure, since AJR check‑in and security still need that buffer.

One last tip: winter weather on the 90 km stretch can slow traffic, so build an extra 30 minutes into your return shuttle booking for morning departures out of Arvidsjaur.
