Well hello there, fellow adventurers! Have we got some thrilling tidings for you from SAS Scandinavian Airlines. This summer, they’ll be unfurling their wings and soaring to an impressive tally of over 130 destinations across more than 40 diverse countries. And if that wasn’t enough excitement for you, brace yourself for the announcement of nine dazzling new routes from their numerous hubs.

The bustling Danish capital, Copenhagen, is poised to experience a flurry of flight activity with increased connections to both the northern and southern reaches of Europe. SAS has unfurled plans for five fresh destinations departing from Kastrup airport: the enchanting Tromsø, the picturesque Salzburg, the idyllic Dalaman, the captivating Genoa, and the sizzling party haven of Ibiza. But here’s the catch – Dalaman and Ibiza will only be accessible during the peak summer months from June to mid-August, so for all you sunseekers out there, be sure to plan your escapist adventures accordingly.

But hold onto your hats, because we’re not done just yet! The Norwegian capital is also set to reap the benefits of this expansion, with new flights connecting to the serene Geneva and the alluring Tivat in Montenegro. And for those of you with your sights set on the UK, SAS will be launching a three-weekly service from Bergen, Norway to London during the peak summer period.

Now, let’s steer our focus towards SAS’ long-haul network. Brace yourselves for some major changes to flights bound for Asia and North America. Get set to witness a surge in transatlantic narrow-body flights from Copenhagen, as well as an upsurge of connections to East Asia utilising the magnificent Airbus A350.

But that’s not all – Norwegian Air Shuttle is also upping the ante with its Summer Network, introducing new hotspots such as the Greek island of Rhodes from Stavanger. Meanwhile, Norse Atlantic has joined the fray as a formidable competitor to SAS, operating routes both in the winter and summer seasons.

It’s crystal clear that the competition is heating up, and with more options and destinations to choose from, it’s clear that travellers are in for a delightful treat. Regardless of whether you’re plotting an escapade to a European city, a sun-soaked tropical retreat, or a far-flung long-haul odyssey, the airline industry is standing by, ready to transform your travel dreams into an awe-inspiring reality.

So, if you’ve been yearning to explore new vistas or revisit beloved holiday haunts, SAS and its cohorts are standing by, poised to make it happen. Dust off your suitcases and prepare to embark on a thrilling adventure, because this summer promises to be an exhilarating chapter for travel.
