Last year, I flew into Stockholm. From there, I got a sleeper cabin on an
overnight train to Umea for $75; definately a great way to go. Flying into
Umea is also possible, but it adds quite a bit to your plane ticket, and you
miss a nice rail journey. You can get the tickets at the central train
station in Stockholm easily.

The train sounds interesting. Is it $75 round trip? From what I can
tell it's about $150 for round trip airfare between Stockholm and
Umea. The advantage of flying all the way is that your baggage would
be checked to Umea, so if any of it missed a connection along the way
that's where it would be sent instead of just to Stockholm.
