Direktflyg (HS, Borlänge/Falun) will likely suspend its 10x weekly Stockholm Arlanda to Oskarshamn service from June 27 after the municipality there decided to close down the airfield. Ranked among Sweden's smallest airfields, the Oskarshamn Municipality said it could no longer justify running the facility given mounting costs.

As a result, Direktflyg says it will now consider operating flights to nearby Kalmar.

While the move has drawn criticism from locals and Direktflyg management itself, the local media have been quick to point out that in addition to the scheduled passenger services, the airfield is also an important conduit for the regions' air ambulance services
