Scandinavian Airlines is continuing to expand into the Polish market as it will open another direct route on October 29 between Copenhagen and Lodz. SAS will offer more than 70 weekly direct flights between Scandinavia and Poland, with smooth transfers to the rest of Europe.SAS will be the first network carrier to operate flights to Lodz, Poland’s third biggest city with a population of 1.2 million in the greater area of Lodz.

“Poland is an extremely important market to us, considering its proximity to Copenhagen. We can offer a quick direct flight or an easy transfer to all our Polish destinations. Earlier this year, SAS opened Copenhagen-Katowice and last fall also Stockholm-Gdansk. SAS will now fly to six destinations in Poland, offering eight direct routes from Scandinavia,” says Joakim Landholm, Chief Commercial Officer, SAS.

The flights will have great connections in both directions primarily to/from all of Scandinavia, the Baltic and European destinations.
