After a somewhat tumultuous summer in 2022 with strikes and major financial losses, there are now brighter times for the Scandinavian airline. In a press release Thursday afternoon, they mentioned that 20 new flight paths will open in the summer of 2023, nine of these from Norwegian airports.
– We are excited to announce our program for next summer, and we are excited to see the increased interest in travel. Next summer will include many new destinations, but also more capacity in already existing destinations. SAS will continue to add new destinations in the coming months, as an addition to our already large network. We are looking forward to a busy summer,” SAS Vice President Eric Westman said in a press release.
