SAS among safest airlines in the world

Meanwhile, the airline is reducing its number of flights out of Copenhagen due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic 

According to airline safety and product rating review website AirlineRatings.com, SAS is among the safest airlines to fly with in 2021.

SAS found itself in the top 20 and ranked ahead of the likes of Lufthansa, KLM and United.

“SAS Scandinavian Airlines fell back two spots to earn the number 16 ranking for 2021’s list, compared to the number 14 spot last year,” wrote AirlineRatings.

“An ongoing fleet renewal is seeing SAS adopt two new Airbus models, the A350-900XWB and A320neo, and pledge to cut back on emissions by powering all domestic Scandinavian flights with biofuel.”

Australian airline Qantas led the list, followed by Qatar Airways, Air New Zealand, Singapore Airlines and Emirates.
