Save ~$1,400–$2,000 vs. three separate return fares

Savings estimates are based on published business class fare comparisons vs. equivalent separate return fares. Actual savings vary by booking date and availability. Our specialists advise on the exact fare combination.

Why travel Chicago to Stockholm?

Chicago to Amsterdam, Copenhagen, and Stockholm covers the best of Northern Europe's design culture, maritime heritage, and extraordinary natural light in the summer months. KLM's Schiphol hub is one of Europe's most efficient connection airports, and the intra-Scandinavian hops between Copenhagen and Stockholm are under 75 minutes each.

Why book as a multi-city itinerary?

The ORD–AMS outbound / ARN–ORD homebound open-jaw is the cleanest structure for this routing. SAS operates direct Scandinavian returns to Chicago and New York, making the homebound leg straightforward. KLM's Amsterdam hub also serves as an excellent connection point for the Copenhagen leg. Our specialists build the combined fare to incorporate all segments at the best available multi-city pricing.

Planning tips for this itinerary

May through August is ideal — Scandinavia's famous midnight sun means 20+ hours of daylight in June and July, transforming cities and coastal areas. Stockholm's archipelago (30,000 islands), Copenhagen's Nyhavn and Tivoli, and Amsterdam's canal ring are each extraordinary summer destinations. Book the ORD–AMS transatlantic leg 6–9 months ahead; intra-Scandinavian segments can be added 3–4 months out.
