SAS Airlines is the consortium of private and public sectors

SAS or Scandinavian Airline System is the most famous airline of the Scandinavian countries. The airline was established in 1946. It is the joint venture of the governments of the Scandinavian countries that are Sweden, Denmark, and Norway and some privately owned business companies. This business venture allows the businessmen to take fifty per cent share of the airline while the Scandinavian governments divide the remaining fifty per cent among themselves. Thus SAS Airline is the unique collaboration of the public and private sectors. SAS is actually based in Norway and uses Copenhagen International Airport in Denmark, and the other is the Stockholm Arlanda International Airport in Sweden as its main hubs. At present, Mats Janssen supervises the airline as its chief executive. He has employed his strenuous efforts to bring SAS as one of the most distinguished airlines of the world.

As far as the size and the structure of SAS Airline are concerned, they can be compared to any of the international airline. It has got a huge fleet of aircrafts i.e. 125 and consequently has an extensive network of destinations, which includes all the important spots of the world. Presently the airline reaches almost 82 European and international cities with highly scheduled flights. The details of the flight programmes of SAS Airline can be taken from the website of the airline with much more useful information. The website is maintained and refreshed on daily basis and has thorough information regarding all the expected questions of the customers. Moreover the website of the airline is also the best source of any sort of reservation from the prospective passengers. Instead of commuting from your home to the booking offices and spending much of your precious time, it is appropriate for you to get reservations online. You can also book SAS affiliate hotels and even cars for your journey through the website of SAS Airlines.

All the aircrafts of SAS Airline are quite new and have the excellent set of facilities for the worthy customers of the airline. SAS Airline provides the passengers a memorable opportunity of air travel with A-one cuisine and superb entertainment on board.

Concentration on the passengers’ security has been the hallmark of SAS Airline. On account of this concern, we hardly see any mishap on the basis of security lapse in the history of SAS Airlines. More recently the incident in Milan provided its critics to blame the airline for negligence. But the incident in which SAS aircraft collided with a smaller plane on runway caused the deaths of 114 passengers on the spot, was not due to any carelessness of SAS personnel. The investigations conducted in this regard cleared SAS Airlines from all charge. SAS Airlines is always keen in introducing the latest equipments and technology for the safety of its passengers in the planes. In 2006, the airline was rated as the very first airline, which introduced a biometric security system in its aircrafts. This development has strengthened the security checks of SAS Airline more solid and foolproof. Owing to its security consciousness and the paraphernalia used in this regard, the airline is remembered as ‘leader in security’ among the international airlines of the world.
