SAS delays opening of San Francisco route

SAS delays opening of San Francisco route As a result of the decline in the number of passengers, SAS has decided to delay the launch of San Francisco as a new destination. The events in New York on September 11 this year have had a considerable impact on air traffic to and from the US and SAS has now decided to focus primarily on restoring the airline's main market on the American East Coast and in the central US. It was SAS' ambition to launch a flight route between Copenhagen and San Francisco on May 10, 2002. Plans involved one daily flight in each direction. Market developments will determine when SAS can again start to plan for the introduction of flights to San Francisco.
