In Depth: Even more European airlines drop China routes

On Nov. 9, Scandinavian Airlines (SAS) concluded its final direct flight from Shanghai to Copenhagen, marking the end of a long-standing route that even managed to keep running during the Covid pandemic.

By the time the flight had taken off, SAS had already deactivated its official account on China’s ubiquitous WeChat social media platform. This leaves Air China as the only airline offering direct flights between the Chinese mainland and Denmark.
