SAS expands route network

10/15/2010 10:41:40 AM

Scandinavian Airline System (SAS) has flagged two new long-haul routes starting in 2011. Oslo-New York will commence end-March 2011, whilst Copenhagen-Shanghai will start during winter 2011. In addition, SAS will also launch a number of new European routes, as well as significantly increase frequency across its key short haul routes by 150 new weekly departures.   "Due to significantly reduced costs and improved market conditions there are now greater prerequisites for a profitable expansion for SAS," said Ole Johansson, regional general manager, Asia and Pacific.   "We are adding one Airbus A340 this winter as previously announced and another A340 next winter, which will bring our long-haul fleet to eleven. We are also adding back in traffic three short haul aircraft, previously leased out, during spring 2011," said Johansson. The additional European routes include: Oslo-Munich, Oslo-Palma, Oslo-Split and Stockholm-Venice.     Aircargo Asia Pacific
