1983-92 Stockholm-Bromma did not have scheduled flights but was still being heavily used by general and business aviation.
1992 Swedish civil aviation was deregulated. Domestic traffic returned to Stockholm-Bromma but aircraft had to meet the airport’s strict environmental standards.
1993 Under new Swedish anti-trust legislation, services at the LFV Group’s airports were opened to competition. Nordic Aero began providing ground handling service for Malmö Aviation. With Nordic Aero came BP, which signed an agreement with Malmö Aviation. That same year, Malmö Aviation went bankrupt, changed owners and continued its operations except for its London route, due to a Swedish government policy decision which meant that no further scheduled international traffic could be established at Stockholm-Bromma. Skyways moved its operations to Stockholm-Arlanda.
1994 The land lease agreement for Stockholm-Bromma Airport between the Swedish government and the City of Stockholm was renewed until the end of 2011.
1995 The LFV Group resumed responsibility for all ground handling at Stockholm-Bromma and took over the services provided by BP. LFV’s Stockholm Division, consisting of Stockholm-Bromma and Stockholm-Arlanda, was established.
1996 A temporary supplementary agreement to the land lease agreement was negotiated. Due to the growth of business aviation at Stockholm-Bromma, a person was assigned the task of restructuring general aviation ground handling, which led to a permanent solution.
1999 The European Union questioned the justification for the restriction on international flights after pressure from British Airways. The matter was taken under advisement by the Swedish government. Malmö Aviation in partnership with Swedish Post worked to expand airmail and air cargo services. Stockholm-Bromma invested in a cargo receiving unit with equipment enabling it to handle future cargo flows.
2002 Renovation of the departure hall was completed.
2001 Stockholm-Bromma became a fully coordinated airport in compliance with Council Regulation (EEC) No 95/93 “on common rules for the allocation of slots at Community airports”.
