Editor's note — SAS Scandinavian Airlines
What we've learned booking SAS Scandinavian Airlines
SAS Scandinavian Airlines Business on the A350 and A330 serves the US-Nordic corridor with a product that reflects Scandinavian design values — clean, functional, understated, and comfortable without being flashy. The A350 cabin features lie-flat seats with direct aisle access, and the catering leans into Nordic cuisine: Swedish meatballs, open-faced sandwiches, Aquavit, and a cheese selection that's genuinely excellent. SAS serves Copenhagen, Oslo, and Stockholm from the US East Coast, and their Star Alliance membership means United MileagePlus members earn full miles. The Nordic routes are interesting for value: SAS-operated business class from JFK or BOS to CPH/OSL/ARN consistently runs $200-400 below the Lufthansa/Swiss/Austrian equivalents for routes to Northern Europe, because direct non-stop pricing beats the connecting options through Frankfurt or Zurich. Our consolidator rates on SAS are strong on the A350 routes where the airline has newer equipment and is competing more aggressively for premium-cabin revenue. For travelers heading to Scandinavia, the Baltic states, or even Finland and Iceland with onward connections, SAS via Copenhagen is usually the most efficient routing.
