Only a minority is able to locate Växjö. More effective, to take the name of the better known swedish region Smaland, even the airport is called “Smaland Airport”

You might compare it with Airport Weeze. In the past, Ryanair struggeld for using the name “Airport Düsseldorf-Weeze” to discribe the location. After expansion und growing up to a base with 18 destinations, Airport Weeze got now established. Good development!
