It takes some effort poking around on the SAS website to find flights with decent Scandinavian connections (and you're still looking at 12 to 14 hours each way) but the price is right, especially for summer travel. SAS is a Star Alliance airline and, while the coach service isn't best in class, it's certainly better than a discount airline -- and you get a free normal size carry on.
