SAS reconfigures Sweden’s domestic coverage
January 4, 2025
Scandinavian Airlines (SAS) has unveiled a major expansion of its domestic network, improving connectivity across Sweden through Stockholm Arlanda Airport.
The changes, which began on January 2, 2025, mark a new era in Swedish aviation by consolidating domestic and international flights at a single airport in the capital.
In collaboration with Braathens Regional Airways (BRA), SAS is set to enhance its domestic offering significantly. Seven BRA aircraft will join SAS’ operations at Arlanda, gradually increasing the number of destinations and flight frequencies.
The partnership aims to streamline travel for passengers, allowing smoother connections both within Sweden and abroad.
Two brand-new routes will be launched on January 27, linking Stockholm Arlanda with Kalmar and Halmstad. SAS has also introduced seasonal routes, including flights between Arlanda and Sälen and between Ängelholm/Helsingborg and Sälen, catering to winter travellers heading to ski destinations.
“We are excited to kick off the new year by strengthening our domestic network in Sweden, all from Arlanda. Our new partnership with BRA will make it easier for people to travel to a wide range of destinations in Sweden, for both outbound and inbound travelers. We look forward to contributing even further to economic growth and continuing to play a key role in connecting Sweden with the world,” said Anko van der Werff, president and CEO of SAS.
“We welcome the new domestic traffic with SAS to Arlanda. As domestic travel consolidates at Sweden’s largest airport, Swedish connectivity is strengthened, increasing opportunities for more people to conveniently travel to any of the nearly 150 international destinations directly accessible from Stockholm Arlanda Airport. In recent years, we have made substantial investments at Arlanda, which our travelers greatly appreciate. We have opened a new, modern, world-class security control and are now gradually opening our new marketplace in Terminal 5. The work to develop the airport continues,” added Jonas Abrahamsson, president and CEO of Swedavia.
