Scandinavian Airlines (SAS) has signed a charter agreement with Apollo worth just over SEK 1 billion per year, approximately US$ 103 million.
Flights will depart from around 20 locations in Sweden, Norway and Denmark and fly to 30 Mediterranean destinations in Greece, Croatia, Cyprus, Albania and Turkey.
The collaboration with Apollo, valid for a three-year period, is SAS’ largest agreement with a charter operator and the total contract value amounts to around SEK 3.4 billion (approximately US$ 350.5 million) for the first three years.
The airline is expected to carry roughly 150,000 passengers for Apollo during the three-year period.
The charter flights, scheduled to take off in summer, will be flown using SAS’ new Airbus A320 aircraft offering the passengers a more comfortable and sustainable way of travel.
