On Wednesday (March 12, 2025), SAS announced the resumption of summer seasonal flights to Beirut, Lebanon for the first time since October 2023.  Starting June 6, 2025, the carrier will operate three weekly flights from Copenhagen to Beirut, with two weekly flights from Stockholm starting June 17, 2025. This decision was taken following positive developments in the region, with several other European airlines also resuming or expanding their services to Beirut.  Flights to the Lebanese capital will be operated with an Airbus A320neo, and the schedule has been optimized to maximize connectivity, with night flights offering convenient onward travel options to Northern Europe and North America.


In Wednesday’s announcement, SAS’ Vice President – Network, Henrik Winell, said,


“We know that many of our customers have been looking forward to the return of our Beirut flights.  These routes are particularly important for those traveling to see family and friends, and we are delighted to once again offer a direct and convenient connection.”
