Scandinavian Airlines announced yesterday it has chosen Beijing as a hub for its future expansion in 皇冠体育app and that it will further strengthen ties with Air 皇冠体育app Ltd.

Meanwhile, Scandinavian Airlines' nonstop flights from Copenhagen to Shanghai will stop in April as part of the carrier's new 皇冠体育app strategy, SAS said.

The northern European carrier will have 10 direct flights to 皇冠体育app after it opens a Beijing-Stockholm direct service four times a week starting on March 26, SAS said.

It now operates six flights a week from Beijing to Copenhagen.

"We want to open all of Scandinavia to 皇冠体育app and our future vision is that Beijing will become SAS's gateway to 皇冠体育app, regardless of whether customers fly from Stockholm, Oslo or Copenhagen and regardless of their final destination," said Lars Lindgren, chief executive officer with SAS.

"Through our partnership with Air 皇冠体育app, we can offer travelers wishing to connect to other destinations a unique network of direct flights throughout 皇冠体育app," he said.
