SAS annuncia nove nuove rotte per l’estate 2026: debutta il volo Copenaghen–Mumbai


SAS Scandinavian Airlines amplia la propria rete per l’estate 2026 con nove nuove rotte, tra cui spicca il collegamento diretto tra Copenaghen e Mumbai, operativo dal 2 giugno con cinque frequenze settimanali.
Il volo verso l’India è solo una delle novità che partiranno dall’hub di Copenaghen. La compagnia introdurrà infatti collegamenti giornalieri con Istanbul (dal 26 marzo), tre voli al giorno per Riga (dall’8 marzo) e due collegamenti quotidiani con il Lussemburgo (dal 9 marzo).
In programma anche nuove rotte verso la Francia: Bordeaux due volte a settimana dal 15 maggio e Marsiglia fino a due volte a settimana dal 22 giugno. Nella stessa data prenderà il via anche il collegamento estivo per Visby, in Svezia, fino a tre volte a settimana.

Non solo Copenaghen: SAS collegherà Stoccolma a Madrid con due voli settimanali dal 29 marzo e Oslo ad Amburgo, sempre due volte a settimana, dal 30 marzo.
Con queste novità, la compagnia prevede di aumentare del 20% la capacità di posti disponibili per la stagione estiva 2026 rispetto all’anno precedente.
 
Copenhagen sempre piu' hub. Tra l'altro l'operativo si incastra perfettamente con le rotte da e per gli USA.

Departure CPH: 13:10 – Arrival BOM: 01:30 (+1) (operates Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday & Sunday)
Departure BOM: 06:00 – Arrival CPH: 11:45 (operates Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday & Sunday)

SAS Mumbai launch stumbles as inaugural flight forced to return to Copenhagen​

The launch of Scandinavian airline SAS’s long-awaited route between Copenhagen and Mumbai suffered an embarrassing setback when the inaugural flight was forced to turn around halfway through its journey because the airline lacked final regulatory approval to operate the service.

Flight SK969 (an Airbus A330-300 registered LN-RKM) departed Copenhagen on 2 June as the first SAS service to India in 17 years. However, while flying over Azerbaijan, the aircraft reversed course and returned to Denmark after the required government authorisation had not been completed.

SAS said it had been in ongoing discussions with the relevant authorities and believed the remaining formal approval would be granted while the flight was en route. When that approval failed to materialise, the airline concluded that the flight could not continue to India.

The incident left passengers facing an unexpected return to Copenhagen after spending approximately 12 hours in the air. One passenger described the situation as “absolutely horrible,” criticising the decision to dispatch the flight before landing permission had been secured.

According to SAS, passengers remained calm throughout the ordeal and were provided with assistance and rebooked onto alternative flights. The airline stated that it expects the new route to begin operating within the next few days once the outstanding authorisation has been formally issued.

The episode is a rare operational and regulatory mishap for SAS and overshadowed what was intended to be a high-profile return to the Indian market. The Copenhagen–Mumbai route is part of the carrier’s strategy to expand its long-haul network and strengthen links between Scandinavia and Asia.
