TRIP REPORT | SAS Rebooked Me on A350! | SAS Airbus A350 | Newark to Copenhagen

- SAS Trip Report flying from Newark to Copenhagen onboard one of the SAS A350 on a beautiful spring afternoon in New York and a cold and rainy morning in Copenhagen.
What a day! Omg! What a day! I was booked on a SAS connecting flight from Newark to Copenhagen (via Oslo, so my flight out of Newark was to Oslo). The flight was scheduled to be operated on an Airbus A321Neo. Everything was absolutely normal and we even had our usual planespotting session before boarding.
It wasn't until 50 minutes before the flight to Oslo that I got an SMS from SAS saying that my flight was delayed by 4 hours (the plane had landed hours ago). I went immediately to the only SAS staff I saw, which was the CPH boarding gate staff. They told me the plane to Oslo had a hard landing in Newark and was under maintenance.
I asked if there was any chance to fly directly to Copenhagen on the SAS flight they were about to board. After many calls, the SAS supervisor changed me to this flight and she even gave me a window seat! Thanks so much to all the staff there. I had important obligations the next day and not being able to fly would have been catastrophic.
The only bad part of the change was that the seat was in the middle of the wing... so that forced me to do my best to make this video. I really hope you enjoy it. It was pretty hard to make.
All that being said, the flight wasn't bad at all. Actually, just after departure, we enjoyed the best views of Manhattan I've ever seen! It was just amazing! We flew exactly over it! For sure on a seat not over the window it would have been better... but come on! After all that happened, I guess I couldn't ask for more!
We flew towards the Northeast, heading to Canada. We left Quebec on our left and Halifax on the right. We then entered the Atlantic Ocean, flying on direct course to Copenhagen. After 5h over the sea, we finally saw some mainland. We landed in rainy Copenhagen ahead of schedule, ending an adventure I Will never forget.
About the onboard service, in the SAS GO class, only one complimentary non-alcoholic drink is offered. All the others are for purchase. A normal economy class is still served. In this case, the main meal (and the only option available) was chicken with pasta and vegetables. It came with some ham with some sauce/cream and lettuce as a starter, bread and butter, and a chocolate cake as dessert. To be honest it was quite good, especially the starter. For being an airline that is under administrating after filing bankruptcy... the catering is kept at a good level. Better than other legacy airlines in Europe, for sure.
The breakfast service was offered one hour and a half before landing in Copenhagen. Again, I was impressed: I was expecting just a tiny thing, but they offered orange juice, coffee, warm bread with butter, and salad with cheese and ham. It wasn't the best but, again, better than many other legacy airlines in Europe.
Now it's your turn!
Have you ever flown with SAS? Maybe with Austrian Airlines? Which route? Which airplane model did fly? How was the experience? Which route did you fly? Have you ever flown on an Airbus A350? Have you ever been in Newark? What do you think about the SAS long-haul experience? What do you think about crossing the Atlantic on an A321?
Lots of things to talk about! Read you all in the comments!!

OnBoardHD, can you send me a Trip on Air Canada from Toronto Pearson to Winnipeg Please?
Like sí ves los vídeos a 2X
I flew from Newark to Stockholm on that A330-300 last year. It was phenomenal, as you had on this food was great and a very friendly cabin crew. I definitely recommend SAS to cross the Atlantic.
The SAS A330 is one model that I still have to try!
Hopefully soon :D
@@OnBoardHD 350 is better
SAS is my absolute favorite airline for flights to the US!
I was number 83 to have joined your subby's,,,,, and I enjoy your channel very much......Thank you for what you do....
Glad you enjoyed the video
Locking the toilets, in this day and age, my my my! My first trip to Copenhagen was with SAS but due to early morning fog which was common in those days(never understood why they scheduled so many early arrivals because of it), we had to stop in Stavanger, Norway to refuel as we were arriving from Anchorage over the North Pole and aircraft did not have the range they do today! The sun was just rising and with the patchwork provided by all the farms in the area, was quite a scenic arrival! Like your background music!
To be honest, if you were not in hurry, sounds liek a very interesting expereince hehe
Mi mas sincera enhorabuena por el video. Los últimos trips reports que estás haciendo me están encantando. Bravo 🎉🎉
Muchas gracias!!
Un placer que te estén gustando tanto! :))
Super trip! Very quiet engines & delicious looking food 😊. 🙋🏼♀️👍🏻🇺🇸
Thanks so much!!! :)
Every time I am at an airport I hear your music in my head. Happy stuff.
haha Cool! :D
I love aviation, and ALWAYS best minetannce than crash !
Great job! I grew up in NJ. You should have mentioned the quick glimpses of the Freedom Tower you provided on your footage. It is a beautiful sight. I am surprised you did not mention a landmark, known around the world.
I really like the A350. It’s my favorite aircraft.
I will be flying the 787-900 and the A350-900 in less than 2 weeks. I will be able to compare both experiences.
Thanks for sharing your experience : )
Wish 2 amazing flights! :)
Personally, I prefer the A350, but let's see what do you think :))
@@OnBoardHD Dallas and JFK from Madrid in the next weeks. Iberia and American. We'll see
@@ncarnaiz It will be a perfect way to compare both airlines :)
Nice video mate, thanks for sharing. Clean shot.
Thanks!!
10:20 good story & u reacted well to the delay! ❤❤
Thanks! At the end turned to have a happy ending... Even with a window seat! But it could end very bad loosing the connection in Oslo... Well, better to think positive :))
Glad that you enjoeyd the video!
good report. love the EWR take off
Thank you for a great report once again. I really enjoy them.
Thanks so much!!
Glad that you've enjoyed it so much! :)
¡¡Buen vídeo!! A ver si algún día haces un vuelo de largo-radio desde Barcelona o vuelas con Iberojet desde Madrid. ¡Saludos!
La verdad es que volar en el A350 de Iberojet es algo que sí que me llama la atención... pero cuando lo miré los precios eran demenciales... =/
Desde Bolivia cochabamaba 🇧🇴 aquí esperando un nuevo vuelo
Empezamos muy pronto!!
Sorry your flight was delayed/changed. It was fun to see the A350. I always love your adventures and wish I could come with you!!
Absolutely another spectacular beautiful shooting filming and you nailed it again, appreciate your super awesome trip report, keep it up Sir and enjoy your weekend, take care and stay safe .. Merci beaucoup
Thanks!! :)
Simply another amazing video my friend 🤩
Thanks so much :))
Flew from Arlanda to Newark on an SAS A350 in business class. It was the best flight I ever experienced.
thx for sharing this flight with us, well done.....fantastic report
Thanks mate :)
As always another Fantastic trip report from you never thank you got some nice view over the wing glad you got it by luck
Thanks so much! :))
Muy buen video! Me encanta el A350 y mas con la livery nueva de SAS, aunque es una pena que te hayan cancelado el vuelo del A321 NEO 🤩
La verdad es que la librea de SAS es increíble... junto con la de ITA, de los mejorcito de Europa.
Excelente. Le tengo panico a volar y veo mucho tus videos cada vez q voy a viajar para sentirme mas seguro y pensar q si se puede disfrutar de ellos. Gracias
Muchas gracias!!
Un placer que te haya gustado tanto y te sirvan un poco para super ese miedo! :))
Qué bonito viaje,🙂me encantó,un saludo
Muchas gracias! Un placer que así haya sido :)
This was a really cool trip report guys.
Thanks a lot! :))
Buen viaje linda las imágenes de la ciudad de nueva york es increíble que el aeropuerto de newark este tan cerca de la ciudad de nueva york y es otro estado y el aeropuerto jfk este tan a las afueras de nueva york 😊
Muchas gracias!!
Un placer que te haya gustado tanto! :))
Love Newark and SAS!!
SAS really surprised me in long haul!
Booked already another flight towards autumn with them :))
Awesome flight report✈️
Thanks!! :)
@@OnBoardHD cool plane too
Muy bueno Lucas, como siempre!
A mi me pasó algo parecido pero al revés... Estas últimas navidades tenía un vuelo en 772 YYZ-CDG-MAD con Air France, pero el día anterior al vuelo me mandaron un mail diciendo que no podían garantizar mi escala en CDG, por tanto me reubicaron haciendo YYZ-LIS-MAD en un A21N de TAP, y tengo que decir que en el momento no me hizo mucha gracia la idea de cruzar el Atlántico en el 321, pero sin embargo luego me acabó sorprendiendo... Una experiencia digna de vivir!! 😅
Muchas gracias!!
Por lo que he visto en algún trip report por ahí, parece ser que el servicio de TAP cruzando el Atlántico no está nada mal, especialmente para lo baratos que son los billetes con ellos... La verdad es que acabo de ver el video de Simply Aviation y me han dado ganas de probarlos :)
Beautiful plane.
I got it as my profile pic for a while now. 😄
I think the SAS livery fits amazingly on the A350 :)
THAT LANDING WAS APPROVED BY RYANAIR.🤣
:))
So why you speak spain
Not funny, didn't laugh.
Its not funny its real
It wasn’t so hard isn’t it?
Ryanair will surely hire the pilot that landed the plane lol 😂
You make a small mistake at the beginning of the video. SAS operates out of Terminal B at EWR. Looks to me you arrived at Term C 😊
Very nice video. I have flown that route often. Love SAS. Used to live in NJ, so it was easy to get home to family in Copenhagen. Now I'm in Colorado, and I'm begging SAS to create a Denver-Copenhagen route. No direct flight route exists currently. Maybe United could make one if SAS doesn't?
Anyways, seeing this video made me homesick for DK. Lots of memories from that route 😊
Great report! 😍I just took SAS to Oslo about 2 months ago with the A321LR. It was also my first time ever flying single aisle transatlantic and I was a bit concerned about it, but it turned out to be overall nice! On the same trip I flew SAS on 3 more flights and yes, I have to agree, SAS is nice! A lot better than Lufthansa. Swiss might still be the top though. Anyway, Thanks for sharing this, reminds me I have a lot of flight vids I still need to post! 😅
It really suprised me. In terms of onboard service in economy class, they are ahead of the majority of legacy airlines in Europe :)
Me Too Like Next Generation AirCraft 😊😊😊
Saludos 🇨🇴🇨🇴🛫✈✈👍👍🇨🇴
El A350 es mi avión ✈️ favorito después el B777, hablando esteticamente, por desgracia aún no fui en ninguno de esos dos modelos
Pretty bad weather on arrival in Copenhagen. Couldn't see the airport until the landing. Airbus has upped the game big time with A350 . Great plane
The A350 is a really amazing plane :)
@@OnBoardHD true
Hi from London ❤👋🇬🇧
Another good episode! I was very surprised that SAS didn't serve free alcoholic beverages as it's an international flight! I was also amazed they announced the lavatory would be locked for landing. A few decades ago I once barely made it back to my seat from the bathroom/ lavatory before we landed. Now that I know better and am an experienced flier, I'm sure the cabin crew on that flight were not pleased with me for having almost landed with myself "in the toilet". Personally, I would not want to travel across the Atlantic in a narrow body aircraft, nor would I even across the United States in a 4-5hour flight. Therefore I was glad to see that you ultimately flew on the widebody. That A350 quiet takeoff was beautiful and virtually silent! Looking forward to your upcoming trips wherever they may take you✈️
Flew Manchester to kuwait on narrow body best leg room in economy ever only 122 passengers plus biggest entertainment screen because so much leg room
Yep Airbus have upped their game big time with the A350 .Many people who fly regularly say it is the best built plane ever .
@@markmitchell2658 flying over the ocean in a narrow body isn't the best choice
Thanks so much, Tina :))
To be honest, SAS really surpised me with the service on this long haul flight.
Except for the non-alcoholic drinks (only avaialble if you pay for them in the lowest economy class) the service wass very solid, and definitely better than the majority of legacy airlines in Europe :)
Thank god they accepted u, if they didn’t accept it u would realize that flight is cancelled
How do you put your reports together? As in, which app/software do you use?
LOVE❤❤❤
Glad that you've enjoyed this Trip Report!
You should try finnair's a350
Holaa Lucas, valió la pena el cambio de avión? Me encanta el A350; que tan conveniente es un long haul en un A321??
Saludos y cuidate mucho.
Sin duda!! Llegué a tiempo a CPH, que era lo más importante! :))
Espero probar pronto el A321 en largo radio igualmente :))
You need to check out Kansas City airport!
yeah! I've watched Jeb Brooks video about the new terminal!
It looks amazing! :)
@@OnBoardHD omg! Yes! Way better than the old one... Happy flying 😁
Olá tudo bem? Já pensaram em vir ao Brasil?
Temos paisagens lindas e vôos domésticos que duram até 4 horas.
Could you PLEASE do a flight to/from Newcastle?
For now it's not on the plans... =/
In June we'll be visiting Manchester in the UK.
Volverás a ir a malaga otra vez?
Sin duda!! El tema es cuándo encontraré un hueco! :D
Cuando vas a volver a a montarte en el Fly Emirates airbus a380?
El sábado que viene toca el A380 de Emirates en el canal!
Algún día podrías viajar con Aeromexico
¿Tus maletas llegaron a tiempo en el mismo vuelo?
No tenía equipaje facturado. De haberlo tenido el cambio de billete no se habría hecho.
So you take a350_900 to Copenhague
La cancelación del vuelo no es un problema, ¡un reemplazo sería más conveniente!
18:08 - ¡La aerolínea de nuestro país! 😍
Podrias hacer la ruta barcelona - Los Angeles de Level
Pues la verdad es que la he contemplado alguna vez.. pero por ahora no la tengo en los planes. Tal vez hacia finales de verano...
What plane are you going to Los Angeles on
In which trip? :)
Why do you premiere 😢it at 1 am and I want to watch now
Well, because that's the time i've set more than 6 years ago :)
You have it available also after Premiere. Hope you'll find a little gap for the Premiere :)
Can u try do jet2 a330
I booked a flight for this summer ln the A321neo 😎
Podrías hacer un Madrid turin con Ryanair?
Por ahora no tengo esa ruta planificada... =/
En el siguiente video puedes volar con Qantas Airbus A380 Qantas es la segunda mejor aerolinea del mundo y tengo una pregunta el logo de Qantas te parece el logo de Turkish airlines
No tengo nada planeado con Qantas por ahora. Lo de segunda aerolínea del mundo Qantas es una invención de las buenas :)
A ver si hacia finales de año puedo traerlos al canal!
Qatar, Singapore y Emirates, son el trio de mejores.
If is possible, I want to see a Tarom B737-700/800 or an A318 flight.
We'll have the TAROM A318 very soon :)
Thank you very much!
You should try the Asian Airlines ( Pakistan International, Indigo, Air Asia etc) you will have lots of fun with them 😂
I know... but the most limiting part of all this is the time available for recording and editing... Soon we'll fly with Air India :)
@@OnBoardHD As long as you spare time for yourself it shouldn't be a issue 👍
I won't fly across the pond on single aisle aircraft. I never would have booked that flight to bein with. For long haul flights I insist on 2 aisles so there is a way to make a walking path inside of the aircraft and be able to get up and walk at least once every 2 hours. I think single aisle long haul is overall a very bad idea.
Well, from my experinece almost nobody walks on the aisle of a wide-body. You can stretch the legs the same way on a single-aisle, which is by just standing up next to your seat.
That being said, I also prefer a wide-body, but I just wanted to point that that idea is just in our mind.
Sinceramente el 95% de las aerolíneas no informan nada de nada cada vez que tienes problemas ( porque te desviaron a otro aeropuerto, porque se ha retrasado tu vuelo por el motivo que sea , porque te han roto tu maleta, etc.).
La única aerolínea que he visto que cumple con todo es Binter .
Si hay alguna aerolínea como Binter me lo decís
La mayoría de aerolíneas prefiere poner un motivo genérico que engloba a todos como "motivos operacionales".
The same story with all the active European flag carriers they are Simply Better than their partners in the US. Since you are from Spain IB > AA🇺🇲 Oneworld and UX > DL🇺🇲 Skyteam Alliance Star Alliance LH🇩🇪 = OS🇦🇹 = LX = SK > UA🇺🇲 Skyteam Alliance AF🇫🇷=KL 🇳🇱= VS🇬🇧 > DL 🇺🇲 Oneworld Alliance BA🇬🇧 > AA🇺🇲.
I agree on the majority of what you say, except that UX is better than Delta. No way mate :)
@OnBoardHD You have a point there but how you are you going to do Skyteam Alliance Spain UX vs DL 🇺🇲?
Nah not Ryanair a350 💀
The hard landing wasn't done by the A350 ;P
Oh k
@@OnBoardHD thx
Have lost my good feel for SAS, they ain`t the same anymore. Awful CEO, a loosing game.
To be honest, I was surprised by the onboard service on this flight and I will repeat with them this year again on the a350 :)
@@OnBoardHD It might be that with Long-Hauls they are great, but they`re currently losing loads of money, which is considerably weird because covid-19 is over. I think at lot of scandis, at least Norwegians are done with the company!
Always claim maintenance… I bet any money it was because 1 they didn’t have pilots to fly the plane or two crew members.
If those are your conclusions after all the explanation on the video... well... there's no reason to loose more time with you.
Nobody is claiming nothing to maintenance; in fact maintenance are a key part of the aviation safety chain.
@@OnBoardHD I know maintenance is KEY towards the aviation industry.. I’ll give you a simple example ready?? Was down in Mexico won’t say which airline it was coming back to the U.S.A.. Before we leave the airport airlines app says airplane on time.. Arrive at airport 2 hour delay after two hours company cancels flight in regards towards “maintenance “.. Well come to find out the following DAY the plane had NO pilots to fly the plane out of hours… SOOO the company had to fly pilots in from Miami so we can return back to the States..
Worst seat you could pick, dissapointed.
If you would pay attention to the video, you would even write that nonsense comment. omg
@@OnBoardHD Seguramente ni miro el vídeo, ahí dices claramente porque te toco ese asiento.
