SAS will launch direct route to Agadir, Morocco

For the first time since the spring of 2019, it will now be possible to fly in scheduled service with Scandinavian Airlines (SAS) non-stop from Stockholm Arlanda to the coastal city of Agadir. Located near the foot of the Atlas Mountains in southern Morocco, the city offers long white sandy beaches and a comfortable winter climate, making it a popular destination with Europeans.

The first departure is planned for November 4 this year, and the route will be served once a week, on Saturdays, during the winter season. Tickets will go sale at www.sas.com.

Passengers who fly with SAS can buy tickets that include 50 per cent sustainable aviation fuel (SAF), which is a biofuel. Compared to fossil fuels, SAF dramatically reduces climate-damaging CO₂ emissions. The Stockholm−Agadir route will be flown by an Airbus 320neo, with about a 20 per cent saving in fuel efficiency and emissions.
