SAS and Singapore with code-share

SAS will begin code-sharing on Singapore Airlines routes between BKK and SIN, in addition to the CPH-SIN route from December 1st.

On the other hand Singapore will code share with SAS on CPH-OSL/ARN/HEL

Great news! ^

That means you can fly SQ BKK-SIN part of a discounted SAS ticket Scandinavia-SIN.
Previously only TG have been allowed.

The problem with CPH-SIN though is that (I believe) the route is operated by rather old aircrafts.

This is what the SK Z-fare ARN-SIN says:

STO-BKK(SK/TG/SQ)SIN
STO-CPH-BKK(SK/TG/SQ)SIN

Updated with SQ BKK-SIN, but not possible to use SQ for CPH-SIN.

What a shock for the SQ passengers to experience SK intra-Nordic.

it is possible to use CPH SIN operated by SQ as long as it is under SK code. In routings, transit points are not compulsory.

Are you sure about that?

In most routing conditions I have looked at, if you are allowed to fly nonstop between the origin and the destination it usually says so.
I.e. in the routing condition for the STO-SIN fare is should also have said:
STO-CPH-(SK)-SIN or STO-CPH-(SK/SQ)-SIN

Anyway, just for fun I tried some dates on the SAS webpage, days of the week I know SQ fly CPH-SIN, and I was not given the option to fly SQ directly from CPH.

I think jacob_m is right. I had similar case with CA ticket to PEK.

I can't even find a SK/SQ flight in December on Expertflyer - it's all TG...

From my experience, if you book an SAS ticket to SIN, the BKK-SIN flight will book with the TG flight number (not SAS codeshare).
Since the routing condition for all SAS fare to SIN now include SQ that should not be an issue (or at least I hope so).

Another question is,
would SK Economy Extra fare allow to take SQ Biz on BKK-SIN segment or not?

And a second question is, since SAS apparently will code-share CPH-SIN, are there any SAS fares that actually allow these flights to be used?
Otherwise the whole thing is quite pointless.

I wouldn't mind a SK/SQ cooperation on routes to MEL/SYD/PER/BNE/ADL instead of flying QF.

If you mean SQ fares to Australia including intra-Scandinavian SK segment, there are already.

But If you mean SK fares to Australia including SQ SIN-Australia, then the most of people won't buy it,
because,
* Adding more transfer point hence longer travel time, is not favorable for the most of passengers(except FT:ers)
* Additional transfer point means also higher total ticket price.

My two major destinations are Singapore and Melbourne and i'm EBG so for me the optimal combination would be a cheap SK Z fare with SIN stopover and then SQ A380 to MEL
