Therefore, we are proud to offer our customers 45 new routes to choose from in 2013. This means that we will continue to be the airline that has the largest selection of flights in the Nordic region.

“The introduction of these 45 new routes is completely in line with the SAS goal to meet our customers’ complete travel needs. 

These new routes will start being sold successively beginning Monday 26th November.”

Pilots Approve Agreement

The new revolving credit facility of SEK3.5 billion (€407 million) is therefore now only subject to parliamentary approval where required.
