“SAS’ new direct service between Copenhagen and Bangkok comes at a perfect time as Thailand enters this high season. The flight will offer added option for air passengers from Scandinavia to travel to Thailand for the warm and sunny climate, and friendliness of the Thai people.” say Mr. Siripakorn Cheawsamoot, TAT Deputy Governor for Marketing Communications
While many people enjoy the natural beauty of Thailand and the many opportunities for outdoor activities, Thailand is also known for its rich culture and history. Scandinavia travellers will be able to enjoy their favourite holiday destination with SAS. Departure from Copenhagen is convenient and good connection from other Scandinavian countries. To boost arrivals from Scandinavia, TAT Stockholm Office is also cooperating with SAS on a range of marketing promotions and publicities.
As part of the Winter 2023/2024 program, SAS will continue its three-times weekly services to Bangkok scheduled from 30 October 2023 to 2 April 2024, using the Airbus A350 aircraft, offering passengers a unique and more sustainable travel experience. This aircraft has a much lower fuel consumption and up to 30 percent lower CO2 emissions than previous comparable aircraft.
