Scandinavian Airlines will open the Copenhagen-Seattle route on May 21.
The airline will operate five weekly round trips on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. The aircraft used will be the Airbus A350-900. The flight duration is 9 hours and 45 minutes from Copenhagen and 9 and a half hours from Seattle.
This route resumes after 57 years, with Seattle having maintained deep connections with Scandinavia due to immigrants from Nordic countries until the early 1900s. This responds to the growing travel demand to the United States, expanding the number of North American destinations to 11 cities.
