This is of course due to the strong regional growth with many new industrial establishments and thus a high level of commuting and immigration.<br \/>\nIncreased air traffic is therefore crucial for the region&#039;s continued expansion and the opportunities for companies and residents to reach the outside world.<br \/>\nDue to the region&#039;s positive development, the airline SAS has decided to increase air traffic to and from Skellefte\u00e5 Airport on Mondays and Thursdays when travel demand is greatest.<br \/>\nAn extra departure on Monday morning at 07:00 from Arlanda and a new departure from Skellefte\u00e5 at 17:10 on Thursdays will allow for longer stays in Skellefte\u00e5. In addition, there will be major improvements for those who commute to or from Skellefte\u00e5 weekly, something that has been requested by the local business community.<br \/>\nThe flights will start on April 8 and are planned to be operated with modern Airbus 320 neo.<\/p>\n<p>\u2013 Traffic to and from Skellefte\u00e5 has fantastic growth and SAS naturally wants to continue to contribute to the positive development by offering good and frequent flight connections. What we see as extra interesting about the passengers to and from Skellefte\u00e5 is that there is a focus on sustainable travel as many local companies choose to travel on tickets that include biofuel. We are constantly evaluating the regional market and if the positive development continues, we can hopefully develop the traffic further, says Irena Busic, Head of Media Relations Sweden SAS.<\/p>\n<p>\u2013 We are extremely pleased that SAS has now decided to expand air traffic to and from Skellefte\u00e5 Airport. These two frequencies on Mondays and Thursdays have been in high demand because the need is so great. The expansion will be especially important for the increased work commute to or from Skellefte\u00e5, says Robert Lindberg, CEO of Skellefte\u00e5 Airport.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Facts expansion<br \/>\nMondays: Departure ARN 07:00, Landing SFT 08:10, Departure SFT 08:40, Landing ARN 09:50<br \/>\nThursdays: Departure ARN 15:30, Landing SFT 16:40, Departure SFT 17:10, Landing ARN 18:20<\/strong><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Med anledning av Skellefte\u00e5regionens starka tillv\u00e4xt har flygbolaget SAS beslutat att ut\u00f6ka flygtrafiken mellan Skellefte\u00e5 och Stockholm.
