Scandinavian Airlines (SAS) is continuing its post-restructuring rebuild with a fresh round of longhaul growth, this time with routes to the United Arab Emirates and Thailand.

At the same time, SAS is significantly boosting its Thailand footprint. The airline will launch nonstop service from Copenhagen to both Phuket and Krabi, two high-demand leisure destinations. These will represent the first scheduled nonstop flights from Scandinavia to those airports. Thailand capacity from Copenhagen will increase by more than 75 percent compared to this winter, in which SAS serves only Bangkok (BKK).
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on Live and Let's Fly.
