Mar 11, 2010 (newstodate): Encouraging demand in the market is prompting SAS to grow its frequency on the re-launched route between Vilnius, Lithuania, and Copenhagen, Denmark.
SAS reinstated its services to Vilnius from January 11, 2010, offering two daily flights on the route, but it will add a third daily flight from May, 2010, with CRJ900 NextGen aircraft, competing with the Latvian carrier airBaltic that has served the route from June, 2004..
SAS was the first international airline company to start regular flights from Vilnius Airport in 1992, but retreated from the Baltic markets from the launch of the winter schedule 2005-2006 after failing to win a dominating ownership position in all three Baltic airlines.
