Stockholm:

A 2nd daily flight is added on Sat/Sun to make 14 weekly rather than 12. B737/A320 used.

There are the usual reductions in peak summer, but, that's quite a healthy increase from SAS.
Good to see the legacy flag carriers growing alongside the locos. "In diversity we have strength". Aside from the old Eastern-Bloc carriers, who never really got a toe into MAN, the EU flag carriers who have traditionally been at MAN for decades have all survived and even grown since the embracing of locos over the last few years. Room for all at MAN, well kind of!
