SAS

Just read this elsewhere on the internet.. Shame it’s not more regular


SAS will operate a short season of direct flights to Oslo and Stockholm over Xmas and New Year 19/20 using A320 & B737-700
Better than nothing and who knows? The saying should be the same as "a puppy is not just for Christmas”.

"A temporary pop up service to cash in on Europe's best festive shopping destination, is not just for Christmas." Catchy.
 
you would think that a daily flight to Oslo and Stockholm on a CR9 would be ideal for BHX and SAS, I wonder why they have never tried it? would seem an ideal sized aircraft for these routes?

They would have to rely on point to point traffic only as i believe neither are hubs or at least big hubs for SAS, that is CPH.

I don’t think they have a CRJ base at Oslo or Stockholm to enable SAS to operate flights- but i agree it would be ideal if they did
 
They still operate from there as on a Saturday morning Manchester gets three one each from Stockholm, Oslo and Copenhagen
 
Wolverhampton Wanderers,who will have a Europa League campaign.Hopefully they will use BHX to get to their matches.
Also newly promoted Aston Villa.
 
The Gainjet B757 is the usual conveyance for the England national teams, could this be extended to premier league jollies into Europe?

If I am correct, the Manchester outfits use corporate sponsors aircraft I.e Etihad and Aeroflot but this may be for global preseason tournament tours only.

When the Blues were in the Europa League I think we used a Dragon Rapide for the team and a Cessna 152 for the fan.
 
Jenny in answer to your comments ManU use Aeroflot for some of the european matches but their pre season they are using
an Atlas Air Executive B747 and a Crystal B777 in the far east/US .City never seem to us Etihad nowdays and from memory
are using a Hi-Fly A340 this year
 
Nice to know Million, thank you. But did not City have an aircraft daubed in their colours and titles? In any instance, nice way to travel and get paid for it!
 
Mainly for advertising as it used to come quite often on the scheduled service Man U used to have an Air Asia A320
which came over twice but never carried any pax just for advertising

Sorry, I didn't know Wolverhampton was part of Birmingham.

Heads Up!

Flying is the second greatest thrill known to man.... Landing is the first!
i must be a lunatic. Friday 25th Sept will see me doing a daytrip that involves me leaving my flat in Manchester at 1am and not getting back home until after midnight. All because I'm doing a Loch Ness and Scottish Highlands trip.... out of Glasgow
For some weird reason, my days off work tend to involve being out of my flat by 5am and not getting back until 10pm. Back to work and the regular "fix" of 7.40am to 7.15pm hours
Heatwave Mk2 next week?
Some explosive weather build-ups currently in the North of England. What is it like where you are?
