The best deal from sweden right now seems to be the new US flight from ARN but not just to the PHL hub as the fare conecting to NYC or DCA seems to be lower than booking just the TA flight alone. MH Malaysian has deals on their JFK flight all the time. I do not live in Sweden any longer so do not follow things too closely though.
It seems fares are up from last month and I bet fares are going to go very high during this summer so early booking seems to be the key. That said, US has been offering low fares from MAD that are bookable up to day of departure. So in the air fare jungle anything is posible.
Another thing I used to do from Sweden during the summer is book a cheap flight to LON or PAR and then book the TA flight from there. Could usualy save a few hundred $ in the past, but fares from ARN are much better than they used to be.
