They don't at OSL anymore either. It is still physically there, but "built-in", and unstaffed. Of course: at OSL it is just one floor up. But then: why bother with connecting passengers. The competition is for the O/D passengers at ARN and OSL. They can choose a number of airlines, whereas the provincials connecting on Swedish and Norwegian domestics tend to choose SK by default also for their international flight for the convenience of through check-in and somewhat cheaper prices. (Hey: at least one doesn't have to carry the luggage BOTH ways!)
