SAS Cargo

Cargo hubs & stations

SAS Cargo maintains no route network of its own. Its capacity mirrors the SAS passenger network out of Copenhagen, Oslo and Stockholm, extended by road feeder services and interline partners. Only the three hubs and new intercontinental routes published by the carrier itself are recorded here.

Fleet & capacity

SAS Cargo operates no aircraft of its own. The capacity it sells comes from the Scandinavian Airlines fleet, which flies under that carrier's air operator certificate. No fleet records are therefore held here.

SAS Cargo Group A/S is the cargo arm of Scandinavian carrier SAS and a wholly owned subsidiary of the SAS Group. It operates no aircraft of its own; instead it sells the belly capacity of the SAS fleet. Road feeder services, ground handling and parts of business processing are outsourced. The head office is at Copenhagen Airport, where the company states it concentrates around 93 full-time positions, supported by seven country offices and 17 general sales agencies across Scandinavia, Europe, the United States and Asia. According to company information retrieved on 11 September 2026, SAS Cargo serves roughly 136 destinations in 31 countries, carries more than 55,000 tonnes of freight a year for over 1,900 customers and holds capacity on up to 1,100 flights. The network centres on Copenhagen (CPH) as the global hub of SAS, complemented by Oslo Gardermoen (OSL) and Stockholm Arlanda (ARN). Long-haul services are flown mainly with Airbus A350 and A330 equipment, on which temperature-controlled shipments are accepted from 500 kilogrammes chargeable weight; on narrow-body flights an active cooling unit is required. Within the pharma product the carrier's own trucking is limited to the ARN-CPH-OSL lanes, other lanes on request only. For forwarders the identifiers of the operating airline Scandinavian Airlines apply: IATA code SK, ICAO code SAS, AWB prefix 117. Booking and tracking run through the booking.sascargo.com portal; the company states that more than 80 percent of bookings are made online and that its first portal went live in 2015.
