SAS has officially joined the SkyTeam global airline alliance today, marking a major milestone for the airline and elevating SkyTeam’s global network to new heights.
By joining SkyTeam, SAS contributes to the alliance’s strategic focus on operational synergies and sustainability. SAS customers will also benefit from seamless connectivity to over 1,060 destinations in SkyTeam’s extensive global network, notably opening new opportunities in regions such as Africa, Latin America, and the Caribbean. Codeshare agreements are already in place with Air France-KLM with options for codeshares with more SkyTeam members to follow later.
SAS EuroBonus Silver members will now be recognized as SkyTeam Elite, and Gold and Diamond members will enjoy the elevated status of Elite Plus, granting them enhanced services across the SkyTeam network.
With SAS now a member, SkyTeam becomes the only airline alliance to serve both the southernmost and northernmost commercial airports in the world: Ushuaia in Argentina and Svalbard in Norway. This addition further strengthens the alliance’s reach across key global markets, with improved access to the key Scandinavian hubs of Copenhagen, Stockholm, and Oslo, providing more robust connections for travelers.
