I never have, but this is too much for you to comprehend. What I said
was that that option was an additional benefit of using the
Pendeltag/bus option for Arlanda, while you couldn't even count the
number of coupons it took, and much less expensive than your stupid
option. But you can neither comprehend or count, can you?

There's no need at all to visit the SL ticket office, you can easy buy the
"rabattkuponger" ticket stripe at the barrrier to the platform. Buying
them and have a stamp on them is a matter of 1 or 2 minutes. More or less
the same time as to queu for the aircoach tickes and buy them. So you're
wrong on that point.

The odds are good. As 20 happens to be divided with 5 into 4 portions.
And there's also a convenient 10 coupon "rabattkuponger" stripe, just
slightly more expensive at 80SEK or 8SEK each coupon (compares with 7SEK for
those 20 )
Let's see one 10 coupon divided in two 5 coupon trips assuming the o.p
makes a return trip.
Or if you happens to be two persons sharing a 20 coupon divided with 5
coupons each in one direction and 5 coupons each in the other direction.
Now try to do the math. Take the time, we have patience and you're fully
allowed to take use of a calculator.
Now to another of your misunderstandings, the inconvenience of stairs.
From the base level Vasagatan you'll reach the base level of the central
station then you've to go down stairs to the lower level and then up stairs
to the commuter train platform.
To reach the coach terminal from the basement you've to go up (long) stairs
to the base level in the coach terminal and then another stairs inside the
terminal.
Any particular difference ?

As I can remember there was a short period when they charged 6 but that
period didn't last very long , some months or a ½ year.
But that's history and definitely not the actual price.

I'm not lying , I'm talking from experience.
You've typically much more space in the commuter train than in the cramped
coach.
You can stretch out more comfortable and except for the peak hour you've
plenty of space. In the coach you've a seat pitch typical to that in an
airplane.
Didn't I say we carried our bicycles on the train back so have a clue ?
Anyone seen people with bicycles on the airport coaches ?
I would really regard the Märsta trip as being more comfortable and relaxed
compared with coach although you're paying with a 15 min longer trip.

Re: Stockholm & Glasgow
Perhaps. I suppose they just decided to raise the price instead. It
has gone from 85 kronor to 110 kronor to now 145 kronor over the years
I have been using them. They do allow you to use up your old ones
even if the price has risen, however.

Exactly right again and you are effectively being paid 89-36.25 kronor
per trip (or 7 USD or so) for that minutes. That's 28 USD an hour.
Not bad to be more comfortable is it?

The Arlanda express ordinarily costs 180 SEK for a single ticket. A
return is 340, but they also have 2-hour and 6-hour return tickets,
which I guess could be useful for you, at the prices 200 and 250 SEK,
respectively. They also have reduced weekend prices (two adults and up
to four children for a total of 200 SEK).
A single bus ticket Skavsta-Stockholm costs 130 SEK.
Enjoy your trip.

So that means you, at best, seem to have used it all of once, never
checked to see if the prices you quoted were correct before opening
you mouth, can't count anyway, etc. etc. but are a pure expert on the
route. Figures. Even if you had to pay 6 coupons each way insteat of
5 that would still make the bus/pendeltag option about half of the
airport bus for anyone except a moron like you who throws their
rabatkuponer away after each trip.

The OP is arriving from Skavsta, probably by airport coach. Why should
he want to visit the basement below the train station when he is
changing from one airport coach to another, and these are standing right
next to each other?

It was a short period when they added an extra coupon in some relations but
that didn't last long as there was massive protests against.
Anyway you've traveled 3-4 times over Märsta in that short period but
nevertheless you spend all efforts to argue against that connection as being
extremely uncomfortable.
Why on earth did you choose that connection ?
