ARN-OSL tickets
I'll be visiting Sweden and Norway in June and I'm looking for a ARN-OSL flight. The lowest price with SAS - except for an early morning flight which is not the best option for holidays - is €90. According to your experience, is this the lowest expectable price (and therefore I should purchase it soon) or is it likely that it will go down and/or is it likely that some promotion might be launched? Many thanks in advance.

Just remember to check that it is not a Lite fare if you need checked luggage.

It seems like there are no Light tickets between ARN, CPH and OSL. And promotions for those routes are rare.

For that price I'd book it immediately and not look back, you mind find a points promotion at some point for intra-Scandinavian travel as they like EB-members to waste their points on those. Getting a better price through a fare promotion on that route is unlikely.

Or you can take the train for 1/3 that price. It may only take 1 hour longer from Stockholm Central to Oslo. if you think about traveling to Arlanda, check in, waiting, flying and traveling to Oslo Centre.

I haven't taken the train to Stockholm since the last millennium because the timings doesn't work for business travel, but I would guess it's great for leisure travel. More space and a half decent view.
