SAS launching Denmark-Dubai nonstop
European Airlines have announced plans to link Dubai nonstop to Scandinavia and by business-class-only service to the UK and the U.S.

European Airlines have announced plans to link Dubai nonstop to Scandinavia and by business-class-only service to the UK and the U.S. Unlikely though it might seem, no UAE carrier currently provides nonstop service to the Nordic region.

The airline’s plans include both leisure- and business-travel developments.
