What a week! From near bankrupcy to launching 45 new routes!
So lets guess what the new routes are.
Id say the majority will be from CPH/OSL/ARN to mid-range European destinations. But heres what Im hoping for:
TRD - DUB
TRD - LGW/LHR
TRD - CDG
TRD - MAN
OSL - LCY
OSL - BOD
Programs: EBG, A3*G, FB Gold, CC Gold, BW Plat., Le Club Plat.

Local newspaper said they'll stop the VAA-CPH in March 2013 that Blue1 introduced this year so maybe they have 45 new routes while they remove a bunch of "old" ones.

Not really surprising tbh. Setting up new routes doesn't happen over night but takes months of planning so this was initiated long before the public got to learn about the near closure of the company...

What routes are you hoping for or predicting?
Can't predict anything, but definately HOPING for at least another option or two from KRS to mainland Europe. With Flynonstop opening in the spring, and typically better prices from KLM, SAS is soon going to lose most if not all of my inter-European business. I'll definately stick with them for long haul as I like their onboard service, the ability to utilize Optiontown and stand-by point upgrades, but have been driven away the past year due to their pricing out of KRS and inferior short haul economy product.

Just to mention a few..
What routes are you hoping for or predicting?
You got me all excited there for a moment...
Doubt any of the new routes will be to/from Trondheim!
I would like to see CPH-LGW as an alternative option to LHR.
More direct flights from CPH to the U.S., perhaps CLT which is a *A hub (US), or alternately ATL, MCO, MIA? Although I doubt the new routes are TATL other than the already-announced CPH-SFO.
Or how about CPH to Bermuda or the Caribbean if we're dreaming?
Well, since we are dreaming: OSL-TXL (eventually BER). I know many think it would not make sense due to competition from LCC, but it would be great for me :-)
Not to mention the even more unlikely OSL- TLV, I would be the number one customer!
Well, 45 routes in one shot sounds like quite a lot, so I expect that these are going to be fairly sparse connections (time-wise). Like the one you mention.
