After a rather troubled summer in 2022 with strikes and heavy financial losses, there are now much brighter times for the Scandinavian airline. In a Thursday afternoon press release, they say 20 new flight routes will open in the summer of 2023, and nine of those routes come from Norwegian airports.
– We are very pleased to announce our schedule for next summer and are delighted to see a growing interest in travel. Next summer will include many new destinations, but also increased capacity in existing destinations. SAS will continue to add new destinations in the coming months, in addition to our already extensive network. We are looking forward to a busy summer, says SAS Vice President Erik Westman in a press release.

From Bergen airport, Flesland, there will be opportunities for sun and a good atmosphere with departures for Milan and Nice. And the latest departure may not be so “exotic”, but a new route is opening up from Trondheim airport, Værnes, to Haugesund.
