SAS Expands in the Balearics

SAS Scandinavian Airlines is to add a twice weekly service to the Spanish Balearic island of Mallorca from its Copenhagen base. The flight to Palma will be inaugurated on September 3 and will be its second route to the city from Scandinavia. It already offers a weekly flight from Stockholm, holding a 15 per cent share of the 62,000 O&D passengers flying to/from Stockholm Arlanda.

The Copenhagen – Palma route is dominated by Air Berlin which has a 44.9 per cent share of the estimated 112,000 O&D passengers that travelled on the route. The German carrier has five flights per week into a hub that it has developed on the island. Low-cost carriers Norwegian and Comber Sterling alsooffer three and two flights per week respectively, while Transavia Airlines’ Danish division has also flown the route in the past year.
