Isn't that a hinderance? How many direct long haul routes do SAS offer from Oslo?
Precisely none ! The A330 / A340 fleets are based out of Copenhagen and Stockholm with Oslo a mere feeder to both. Does that sound familiar?
Nothing was said about long haul from SAS.
The main difference is, how many scheduled routes does BA offer on its own metal from MAN? 2 (LHR/LGW), 3 if you count the sun air flight (BLL).
How many scheduled routes do SAS offer from Oslo? 45. Thats the main point. Im not turining this into another 'BA neglects the regions' thing just mearly pointing out the advantage OSL has with its flag carrier.

Oh and skipness, for the record, SAS does offer long haul from OSL, the SK907 to EWR. Its only one route, but its not 'precisely none'.
