SWEDEN: SAS Starts Stansted Service
SAS commenced services between Gothenburg and London Stansted on 26 October.
The 999-kilometre sector will be operated by the Star Alliance member’s 737-600s on a daily basis and replaces the airline’s operations between the Swedish city and London Heathrow.
SAS commenced services from Gothenburg (GOT) to London Stansted (STN) and Brussels (BRU) on 26 October. The 999-kilometre service to London’s third busiest airport will operate daily while services on the 903-kilometre link to the Belgian capital will operate six times weekly.
Both routes will be flown by the Star Alliance member’s 737-600s and both will also face direct competition. Stansted services will compete against Ryanair which operates 18 weekly flights while Brussels Airlines is the incumbent carrier on services to Brussels, with it also operating 18 weekly flights.
However, services to Belgium are in partnership as both SAS and Brussels Airlines are part of Star Alliance.
