SAS to wet-lease three B737s in Summer 2023

SAS Scandinavian Airlines (SK, Copenhagen Kastrup) will wet-lease three B737s from Jettime (JTD, Copenhagen Kastrup) for the Summer 2023 season.

The Danish leisure ACMI/charter specialist said that the trio would be based out of Denmark and Finland, and would be used to operate routes both to major European cities and summer leisure destinations in the Mediterranean. Vice-President Birthe Madsen told ch-aviation that the agreement does not cover specific B737-800s but rather just the capacity equivalent of three aircraft. The contract will start on March 26, 2023, and run through October 28.

The ch-aviation fleets advanced module shows that Jettime operates a single B737-700 and eight B737-800s. It is planning to add a further two -800s to its fleet in the coming months.

In turn, SAS's narrowbody fleet comprises four A319-100s, eleven A320-200s, fifty-six A320-200Ns (including twenty units operated by SAS Connect), five A321-200s, three A321-200NX (which are used for long-haul flights), six B737-700s, and four -800s.
