(PRESS RELEASE) STOCKHOLM, Sweden, 2026-Jun-8 — /Travel PR News/ — SAS and Garuda Indonesia have announced a new codeshare agreement that will create more convenient travel options between the Nordic region and Indonesia, using the wider international route networks of both airlines.
The cooperation is designed to make journeys smoother for passengers travelling between Indonesia’s main gateways, including Jakarta and Bali, and key Scandinavian cities such as Copenhagen, Stockholm and Oslo.

The agreement was formalised at the IATA Annual General Meeting in Rio de Janeiro, where it was signed by Neil Raymond Mills, Director of Transformation at Garuda Indonesia, and Anko van der Werff, President and CEO of SAS.
For SAS, the partnership expands access to one of Southeast Asia’s important travel markets, giving its customers new ways to reach Indonesia through Garuda Indonesia’s network. For Garuda Indonesia, the agreement provides stronger access to Scandinavia through SAS’ hubs and regional network, opening improved travel possibilities for customers heading to Northern Europe.

He noted that the partnership will make travel easier for people, companies and communities connected across these markets, while creating new opportunities between Scandinavia and one of Asia’s most dynamic regions.
The cooperation also supports the broader network strategy of both carriers as members of SkyTeam. By aligning selected routes under a codeshare framework, SAS and Garuda Indonesia will be able to offer passengers a more connected travel experience across Europe and Southeast Asia.
