Abstract

The article informs that after implementing drastic cost cuts, Scandanavian Airlines (SAS) intends to generate higher yields by enhancing inflight service. Still Scandinavia's largest airline, SAS is on its way to installing three types of cabin arrangements, instead of two, on European and long-haul services. The airline is introducing lie-flat beds to business-traveler destinations and is creating an intermediate class, between business and economy, with more legroom and upgraded inflight service. Such heavy investments indicate SAS does not plan a retreat from long-haul services, as predicted for Europe's medium-size airlines.
