SAS adds frequencies to the US, Asia and Middle East

Following strong demand on all Scandinavian Airlines’ long-haul routes, SAS will deploy another A340 to add frequencies. As of October this year, SAS will offer customers more flights to New York, Chicago, Bangkok and Dubai.

The demand amongst both business and leisure travelers has increased noticeably in recent months to all long-haul destinations and there is now an all time high cabin factor on the majority of routes.

“We see that customers are coming back strongly after a more moderate travel behavior during the past 18 months. For both the US and Asia, we are once again almost always full in our Business Class, even now in summer, while both Economy Extra and Economy also sells incredibly well. We have seen the customer demands, particularly among our business customers, and are therefore expanding,” says Robin Kamark, Chief Commercial Officer, SAS.

Compared with previous winters, SAS will now fly daily to Bangkok, Chicago and New York from Copenhagen, as well as add frequencies Stockholm-New York and Copenhagen-Dubai.
