  • Flying long-haul on Scandinavian Airlines is a bit different...for example you can't choose your meal, there's just one option. But at least that option is really delicious!

      NYC Flyer I’ve flown SAS from the US to my native country of Sweden and it is a great airline. In fact, it’s my childhood airline. When I lived in Sweden and we flew to visit the US, we always flew on the old SAS Boeing 747s. Nostalgic!

    I also think most international airports look more like an up market shopping mall!! Vacant seat next to you...what a blessing! Its a shame to see the A340 moving into retirement. I have done a number of flights on this type with Etihad and Philippine Airlines and I think they are a great aircraft...but not so fuel efficient. Food looked good....better than most economy meals! Glad you enjoyed it....and breakfast looked ok as well. Excellent review of what looks like a very good economy product.Well done again!

    I flew SAS Go on the A330 last month. After comparing it to SAS Plus I didn’t find many differences. One of the things that I found out was that on my flight home from LAX I got the same meal as I got on the Plus flight, something that shocked me. Anyway nice trip report:D

    "This is one of these gates where they scan your boarding pass and then you're trapped in a small waiting area..." It could be worse... you could be in Kansas City (MCI), where they scan your boarding pass and then you're trapped in a small waiting area, except there's no upscale mall before you get to your gate, just the usual airport gift newsstands and such. The Kansas CIty airport was actually an amazing and efficient design for the 70s and 80s where you could go straight from curbside to your plane in just a few steps. But once security measures were implemented, they walled off the gates, so once you go through security at each cluster of gates, you're stuck. However, Kansas City is going to build a new terminal that is more in line with the rest of the USA and other major world airports with a central security checkpoint that leads to a mall and the gates.

    • @JBM425

    A thorough report. For a ten-hour flight, I'd probably have to break the bank for an upgrade, as that tight seating would be a killer for me. For Economy, I'd say that the catering was excellent, and I like the magazine selection rack. IFE looked fine. You didn't mention wifi, so I imagine it's not available. So overall, I'd say that SAS offers a good deal for short people.
