SAS
begun flying six times a week from
Copenhagen to San Francisco on the US West Coast.
North
Americais an important and growing market for SAS, which already
flies to New York, Chicago and Washington. Scandinavia is a market
that has no direct flights to the US West Coast and there has
therefore been demand from several Nordic and international companies
for a smooth connection to this part of the world. SAS is now
fulfilling that wish.
"SAS
has been flying to the USA for over 60 years and we have a good
understanding of what customers need when they fly long-haul. We are
pleased to offer a direct service from Copenhagen and a travel
experience where customers can enjoy all of our services which are
designed to make the journey easier and more convenient," says
Rickard Gustafson, President and CEO of SAS.
"San
Francisco is an attractive destination in itself, but the city is
also the ideal starting point for the US West Coast. From San
Francisco, customers have access to many other destinations in the
Star Alliance network," says Rickard Gustafson.
By
scheduling the flight departure time from Copenhagen at 12.25 in the
afternoon, SAS has created excellent opportunities for good
connections from Stockholm, Oslo and many other destinations in
Scandinavia and northern Europe.
