    I’m from Sweden and SAS is my favorite airline. I was born in Stockholm but raised in the US. We go back quite often to visit. We moved over here when I was 9 and I’m now 48.

    Does anyone else get hyped about a trip and watch videos about people flying to the same place as you will? Or is that just me. Cuz I’m going with sas from Austin to Washington DC to Stockholm to Germany😝😝 these next few weeks are gonna be the longest of my life waiting for my flight

    The cabin looks a lot like on Lufthansa's refurbished A340-300s. Great video, bud! :)

    I've never flown SAS but looks very good for the money. Icelandair had similar deals when they first launched a lot of their US destinations and I recall their service being pretty good.

    I went with them to san francisco and in some days to hong kong. I feel like sas has made a new standard for nordic long haul flights!

    I think for a long flight they should be offering drinks complimentary, I think that’s wrong 😑. It’s disgusting because people get dehydrated on longer flights

  • @judemayes77-travel80
    @judemayes77-travel80 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    I think the reason it is so cheap is to try and compete with Norwegian, they too have a very similar service for very cheap prices!

  • @aalo7662

    79$?? Do these even plus with that?? Doenst just fuel or taxes alone need more than that??

  • @qilinmelb
    @qilinmelb 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Was there a direct flight from Stockholm to Dusseldorf? It sounds to be a domestic flight for only a couple of hours and then you didnt have to stopover in Copenhagen.

    • @qilinmelb
      @qilinmelb 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      I find most of SAS aircrafts are pretty old, but the bookshelf in cabin is a big surprise. I have never seen any flights with a bookshelf where you can select books from in cabin! SAS doesnt fly across many long haul flights, so we wont be able to see SAS in Oceania.

  • @nickb.7219

    Nice video! looks like sas really is making some progress. got a question though: are there chances of an in-flight experience of the new Eurowings long haul? it would be first on TH-cam! haven't found a video about that yet... cheers

    • @GermanSpottingHD
      @GermanSpottingHD  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi, actually I booked the EW A330 three times: CGN-PMI was downgraded to an A320 when the A330 lost its engine cowling and CGN-DXB-CGN was replaced by a LH A340 due to crew shortage. Gave it up meanwhile. ;)

    I recall getting free drinks and an amazing breakfast on a short Heathrow to Copenhagen flight.

    I flew last week with BA to san francisco and then return home from santa ana near L.A (short runway) to Chicago and then LHR and then manchester. Paid just 300 EUR return but the return leg was on an AA 767 with no seatback entertainment and an old interior. How much was your flight? By the way I absolutely loved san fran, vegas and L.A. The best holiday I have ever had, and I have flown to many, many places

    • @GermanSpottingHD
      @GermanSpottingHD  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah; did the same trip in Nov last year. Completely agree! This particular flight was 79$. The AA 777 was really great. One should avoid the 767 whenever possible but I know sometimes the fare outweighs the cabin. :P

    thanks for the video! I'll be flying the SFO to cph route this winter, so the hard product is the same refurb a340.
    what was that first hot meal they served you? some sort of beef with gravy?

    • @GermanSpottingHD
      @GermanSpottingHD  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      I can't tell what is was by looking at it. It was some sort of meat with mashed sweet potato I think. Didn't eat the hot meal though. Have a nice flight!

    Question: If your in economy and you are claustrophobic or have a medical condition etc, And there is extra space available in first class. Will they let you move? On International flights I will add. I.E I will be taking this airline from Lax to Stockholm and I was wondering.

    You have to pay for inflight meals!? I don't know any other long haul airline that does this..?

    • @LH4116
      @LH4116 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      You don't have to pay for the meals on long haul. You get one free soft drink, with the meal, but alcohol and additional soft drinks have to be paid for. Coffee, tea and water is free throughout the flight.

    The meal tray looks ok and not great. I can not believe that they charge for wine/beer and soft drinks on an International flight.I was going to purchase a ticket today on SAS to Europe. I was doing a research on seats and services. Even shitty AA/UA & Delta offer complimentary soft drinks!
    Turkish Airlines & Qatar even offer amenity kits in Economy class!

    Is water offered for free now on european flights?? I always traveled on SAS and last time I did was last summer and I asked for water they said " you can purchase a bottle" as they only served coffee or tea for free. Couldn't believe it.

    • @GermanSpottingHD
      @GermanSpottingHD  8 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Yes, water should always be free on board SAS.

    • @andrewsebastianrothgarnant350
      @andrewsebastianrothgarnant350 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      They do offer free water on short haul flights, but they´ve been told to do their best to sell a full bottle. I always get a free glass of water on SAS

    • @m1r3o
      @m1r3o 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      yea if fact several minutes after asking for water and being denied, I saw the FA handing a cup of water to another passenger. Quite absurd.

    I flew on them as well in the Economy extra or plus or whatever and they wanted me to pay for a bottle water. I could not believe it either. I would never fly on SAS! What a tacky airline to charge for water, not even offering sodas. Even on trashy United, AA and Delta, they offer all sorts of soft beverages complimentary!
