SAS Link

SAS Link is a regional airline subsidiary associated with Scandinavian Airlines and the SAS Group. The airline was founded in 2021 and began operating flights in 2022, supporting Scandinavian Airlines' regional network. Its operations are based at Copenhagen Airport in Denmark and at Oslo Airport and Bergen Airport in Norway. Although its operating bases are located in Denmark and Norway, its entire aircraft fleet is registered in Sweden, reflecting its Swedish corporate and aviation identity within the wider SAS structure. SAS Link forms part of the group's operating model for regional flying rather than functioning as an independent, globally marketed full-service airline brand. Publicly available reference material identifies its role, launch period, bases and fleet-registration arrangement, but provides limited information about its standalone management, ownership percentages, route portfolio, commercial positioning and detailed fleet composition. Its activities are therefore best understood in the context of Scandinavian Airlines' wider Nordic and European network.

SAS Link was established in 2021 as a regional airline subsidiary connected to Scandinavian Airlines and the SAS Group. It began operations in 2022, making it part of the group's more recent effort to organize regional flying through dedicated operating entities. The airline's role is not described as that of a separate long-haul or independently positioned network carrier; instead, it operates within the Scandinavian Airlines structure and supports regional passenger connectivity. SAS Link operates from three identified Scandinavian bases: Copenhagen Airport, Oslo Airport and Bergen Airport. Copenhagen provides a major Danish operating base, while Oslo and Bergen extend the airline's presence in Norway. These bases place SAS Link within the core geographic area historically associated with the SAS network. The available reference material does not specify a complete route list, passenger totals, revenue figures, employee count or detailed corporate structure beyond its relationship with Scandinavian Airlines and the SAS Group. A notable feature of the airline is that its entire aircraft fleet is registered in Sweden, even though its operating bases include airports in Denmark and Norway. This arrangement distinguishes the airline's legal and aviation identity from the locations from which its aircraft operate. As of August 2025, SAS Link is documented as an operating regional airline, but the supplied reference does not provide a detailed aircraft-by-aircraft fleet table or identify individual aircraft types. Its current public profile is consequently defined primarily by its subsidiary role, Scandinavian operating bases and Swedish fleet registration.
