Strong Demand For SAS’ Asian Routes

SAS
Scandinavian Airlines has noted a growing interest for its upcoming winter program,
which offers a new route to Delhi
and the return of two popular seasonal
routes: Copenhagen-Dubai and Stockholm-Bangkok. This follows a strong summer Where SAS’ Asian routes generally performed better than last year, and cabin
factors well over 80% were noted on most routes.
    “We
are really looking forward to add Delhi
to our intercontinental route network
this October, and there is great interest amongst both business and leisure
travelers,” says Lars Sandahl Sørensen, Chief Executive Officer, SAS International.

    “Along
with our two returning seasonal routes, we offer a dynamic and highly
competitive winter program and very attractive fares.”
    Dubai, which was a new destination for
SAS last year, quickly became one of its most
popular long-haul routes and demand is already strong for this season. Both
Dubai
and Delhi will be served three times weekly from
Copenhagen,
while there will be a
total of eight flights a week to Bangkok – five
weekly from Copenhagen and three
weekly from Bangkok.
    SAS’ winter
program comes into effect October 27, and lasts until end of March.
    Other Asian
destinations include Beijing
(10 flights a week; daily from
Copenhagen and three weekly from Stockholm) and Tokyo (six weekly from Copenhagen).
