There are 4 airports within a 90-minute radius of Stockholm. The biggest and best connected is Arlanda (ARN). Skavsta (NYO) is south of the city, Västerås (VST) is west of the city and Bromma (BMA) is almost in the city itself.
All of Stockholm’s airports have a good bus service to and from Stockholm, via the bus terminal opposite T-Centralen, the main train station. See: http://www.flygbussarna.se/en for more details.
In addition, for Arlanda, you can use the Arlanda Express train, which takes about 20 minutes and brings you into Stockholm Central Station.
There are taxis available at the airport, but please be aware that some are more reliable than others. Good companies include: Taxi 020 and Taxi Stockholm. If in doubt, ask the driver for a price in advance. It should cost between 360 and 650 SEK to get from Arlanda to KTH (depending on the time of day).
