If you sign up for Iceland Air's "Lucky Fares Email Alert", you'll see all the last minute flights into Sweden. I've flown several times into Sweden from BWI. I've flown as low as $250 bucks. You stop over in Iceland, but it's usually about 90 minutes. They fly you into Stockholm, then you just take a bus into the downtown Stockholm area.
Iceland Air is great- they were going through a bankruptcy, so they were desperate to sell flights. You get on the plane, and there's like 50 people on a jumbo jet. I would get a whole row to myself. The last time, it was a full flight though. I think they're recovering.
Go, but be aware there's no sunlight this time of year, and it's freakin' cold. But still... lots of fun. Swedes know how to party, the bars are packed, and you can knock back some good vodka and meet some cool people.
