Future SAS intra-Europe hub strategy ?

With SAS now being in Skyteam, there's incentive for me to fly paid tickets and redeem my Flying Blue miles with them.

But with SAS having been in *A so long, it clearly still maintains a lot of schedules and ticket sales with LH (boo ). As someone based out of FRA, do you think SAS will ever increase frequencies on its own metal to the German destinations it used to rely on LH for ? For example, there's no way for me to fly FRA - ARN without going through CPH, which adds time.....and even the CPH frequencies on Cityjet are not daily during the summer season. And intercontinental flights often end up being multiple stops in Scandinavia and expensive with a LH leg in there. I am also not 100% sure on the status points earnings, although I assume (hope) a SAS codeshare on LH will still earn FB XP because it's Skyteam marketed, but that's OT here.

So over time, do you guys think SAS will adjust its scheduling and frequences to feed more traffic into CPH and ARN (like AF KLM) ?
