    SAS Inaugurates Route to JFK Airport from Copenhagen Metropolitan Airport News

    SAS is expanding its customer offering to New York and is starting direct routes to John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York from Copenhagen; the inaugural flight took place on February 9th.

    SAS recently launched its new route between Copenhagen Airport and John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York. The new route enables SAS customers to travel easily to and from the West and East side of New York as SAS continues to offer a departure from Scandinavia to Newark. The inaugural flight takes place with SAS’s latest addition to their fleet – the Airbus A321 Long Range, which offers a more comfortable and sustainable way of traveling.

    Through the launch of its new route to JFK in New York, SAS offers frequent departures to this convenient and efficient airport with easy access to and from New York and many connecting flights to choose from.

    JFK service begins with five weekly flights from Copenhagen, ramping up with daily flights for the summer schedule. SAS operates at Terminal 7 at JFK.

    “We are delighted to inaugurate our new route to JFK. SAS already offers a solid product to Newark Airport from Scandinavia, and we believe that this addition to JFK from Copenhagen will strengthen the New York offer to our customers. The US is a strategic market for SAS, and we will continue to develop new routes and destinations,” says Anko van der Werff, President & CEO, SAS.

    US destinations continue to generate demand for more frequent departures. SAS will offer about 130 departures per week on a total of 12 routes this winter.
