Is this expansion scheduled round the arrival of potential A350 or 787s?

Valid point. I am not an expert on that route - but if the number of up-ops truly is as high as discussed - then yield is not likely the best. But hey it is a ARN route so Lindgren will not likely kill that one :p
Seriously, ORD is SAS most profitable destination |

The difference between CPH and ARN is not that CPH has more business traffic, the difference is that they like to spit in every EBGs face and charge points for upgrades and at the end when they figure out they STILL need more people to upgrade, they give status less pax upgrades for free.

The following is an interesting article regarding the future relationship between Copenhagen Airport and SAS - the article is from copcap.dk but is basically a translation of an article in the largest Danish business paper Børsen.
SAS maintains Copenhagen as its main hub and opens new routes I have read the originally article in Borsen and it states that CPH and SAS at the moment are in final talks about several new intercontinental routes out of Copenhagen – this year we will probably see a new destination in China (can only be Hong Kong I presume) as well as a destination in another Asian country. Unfortunately the article doesn’t mention anything about plans for adding new aircrafts, but let’s hope this will happen soon, so these new routes won’t be added in favor of some of the current destinations and routes. |

Sorry, only in Danish: from www.standby.dk
SAS langt fremme i planlægningen af tre afgange om ugen fra København SASer langt fremme i overvejelserne om en afløser, når selskabet nedlægger Shanghai ruten. Efter hvad Stand By erfarer er en direkte rute København - Dubai meget langt fremme i overvejelserne med tre gange om ugen fra København. "Jeg kan bekræfte, at vi har København - Dubai som en potentiel mulighed. Dubai er et af de områder hvor der har været vækst de seneste år," siger Lars Lindgren, direktør, SAS Intercontinental, Stockholm til Stand By. "Vi har ikke truffet den endelige beslutning endnu. Vi har to mulige destinationer at vælge imellem, hvor Dubai er den ene. Vi træffer afgørelsen i løbet af en uge - 10 dage," siger Lars Lindgren. "Satser I på forretningstrafik eller leisure?" "Begge dele. Dubai er en interessent destination både for forretningsfolk og ferierejsende. Dubai er også interessant fordi man kan flyve videre på transfer fra Dubai bl.a. til Indien," siger Lars Lindgren. Main story: SAS is considering opening CPH-DXB. They are also looking at another destination. Decision to be made within 7-10 days. DBX is not a bad idea.. just a little concerned if there is enough traffic from CPH. It is not like there is a huge number of *A connections in DBX Cheers, |

The Boeing 787 is a perfect plane for SAS operations, it has the range to reach all destinations with 2 engines and 30% less fuel burn than the current fleet. If SAS plans to get 787s (I know they have plans to do so) within the next 6 years, they need to act now. For every new order made on the 787, SAS have to wait even longer. So when Mats says there will be no expansion at the moment, he's probably right. The expansions can't come for at least 6 years... |
