Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2020/01/06 for Seat 6A The seat is a bit too tight and the foot rest part for even numbers rows seat A. The food was a little simple for a Business long haul (10h). The toilets were huge. The turbulence over Beijing was horrible. Submitted by Karthik K on 2019/10/06 for Seat 49E Service takes a while to reach you and it can get cramped especiaaly on a night flight when you just dump your stuff. Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2019/02/11 for Seat 41D Bassinents available in from of 41D and 41E Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2018/11/21 for Seat 20B I believed in the comment in here and was happy to get the 20B, but as mentioned by another commenter already the whole row 20 has definetly less leg room than the other SAS Plus seats because of the wall as seperation to the business class, luckily the flight was not that full so I could change to21F where I could put my legs completely straigt under 20F (1.82 m), this would be never possible in row 20. Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2018/10/11 for Seat 1D These seats are ok. There's no additional privacy being upfront and I was blinded by a light in the closet in front of 1A that flight attendants kept opening through the whole flight. The seat felt thin but it is wide. I've slept better on other style seats. TV screen was crisp and filled with movies. Service was friendly but it took 2.5 hours to finish dinner. There were at least 3 attendants in business but they would disappear for 30 minutes or more between drinks or food. Food was ok at best and not filling. Breakfast was solid, though rushed. Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2018/04/11 for Seat Row 20 Row 20 (in PLUS) has several bassinets. If a request for a passenger with an infant comes in, pax seated there without an infant will be re-allocated to another seat! SAS never informs re-seated passengers in such cases. Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2018/01/30 Beware! Row 20 in SAS Plus have smaller LCD displays. Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2017/12/10 for Seat 30H Wonderful seat, plenty of leg room and a comfortable 11h flight from PVG to CPH. The only disadvantage is the width, it is quite limited. Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2017/12/05 for Seat 10H I flew SK943 CPH-ORD and was disappointed when I found out that I was not flying in the new SAS Business class. There is a configuration of aircraft that is not represented here nor on the SAS website. It is their backup aircraft used often (LN-RKP). The aircraft has old LAN Chile business class seats, that are angle lie-flat, the entertainment is different, and the aircraft does not have Wi-Fi. The business class cabin is 2-2-2-2 and is not quite as nice of an experience as the new SAS cabins. The cabin is very old and worn. Submitted by Martin H on 2017/11/27 for Seat 1D Seat 1D in SAS Business Class is a great seat, it is a fully flat seat. The service was great! Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2017/10/30 for Seat 9H Seat 9H, Flight SK935 CPH-SFO, Oct 2017. Overall good experience, proximity to lavatories/galley (not directly adjacent to seat – storage space in between) was no problem for me at all (but I am also not noise-sensitive when I sleep. ;-), very comfortable seats that reclines to complete flatness, massage function in seat (haven’t tried/used), sufficient leg space for 6 ft. person, easily accessible separate compartment e.g. for shoes/blankets during flight, power outlet (compatible with multiple connector types), 2*USB outlet (haven’t tried/used), nice big entertainment screen, big movie selection but not too many movie highlights, decent remote control for entertainment system (lacking e.g. a dedicated pause button), decent noise cancelation earphones, WiFi throughout almost entire flight – but need crew support to connect ... nothing really to complain about. Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2017/10/30 for Seat 8F Seat 8F, Flight SK936 SFO-CPH, Oct 2017. Overall good experience, proximity to lavatories/galley (not directly adjacent to seat – storage space in between) was no problem for me at all (but I am also not noise-sensitive when I sleep. ;-), very comfortable seats that reclines to complete flatness, massage function in seat (haven’t tried/used), sufficient leg space for 6 ft. person, easily accessible separate compartment e.g. for shoes/blankets during flight, power outlet (compatible with multiple connector types), 2*USB outlet (haven’t tried/used), nice big entertainment screen, big movie selection but not too many movie highlights, decent remote control for entertainment system (lacking e.g. a dedicated pause button), decent noise cancelation earphones, WiFi throughout almost entire flight – but need crew support to connect ... nothing really to complain about. Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2017/07/16 for Seat 20G I would say that row 20 has less legroom due to the proximity of the wall and inability to stick you feet under the seat in front of you as on other rows. Also the LCD screen is noticeably smaller on row 20 than on the other SAS Plus seats as it folds up from the arm rest. All-in-all, I would rate row 20 below the other Plus rows (rows 21-23). Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2017/06/25 for Seat 55B While i agree on the points associated for various other airlines operating A340s, it's not really the case with SAS' A340s. I've sat in the last seat on their route from CPH-SFO and back again a week later. Mainly, the "seats might feel cramped" part on 55 and 54 are NOT true, it's actually the opposite - the airplane is only ever so slightly narrower, but only 3 seats are located to the right - one less than there is up front. The seats on 54 and 55 are noticably wider, and do NOT have limited recline. The recline seems like more than what would be acceptable than if you had someone behind you at all. The only disadvantage is you will be served food and drinks last, so it takes a little while to get there, but it does. In my 2 times i've been in this seat (a few months ago, in April), rows 54-55 should be marked green. I'd happily choose these seats over any other economy seat in the SAS A340 again. Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2017/05/23 I had seats 37G&H from San Francisco to Copenhagen. I had absolutely no issues with the restrooms proximity. There was no noise and I never experienced an issue with people hanging around. I was supposed to have these same seats on the way back but due to an airplane change we had a different seat configuration so I wound up with middle row seats. I much preferred the row 37G&H seats to the row 32E&F I had on the way home. Submitted by Fredrik D on 2017/02/06 for Seat 6H The upgraded cabin has been very successful and is now one of the nicest if not the nicest on the market. Very comfortable and well functional flat seat and good quality entertainment modul. Food was very good too. I will easily choose this option next time too. They had wifi on the plan, but unfortunately I couldn't make it work. Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2016/10/21 for Seat 30h Best seat in economy Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2016/08/30 for Seat 1A After upgrading the interior, the SAS Business Class is second to none. Flatbed, easy access to the aisle for all passengers, good privacy, excellent audio/video systems and even the food seems upgraded compared to previous flights on SAS. Now they only have to fix a better wine list to become really outstanding. Submitted by Christina J on 2016/07/30 for Seat 51E Not very comfortable. Old fashioned. No USB for a phone. The remote for entertainment is in the armrest. Not efficient and difficult using earphone if you want the armrest upwards. Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2016/07/18 for Seat All seats The BC seat recline is 180 degrees. All photos are from the old interior SAS has upgraded the A340-300 to the new interior. Same as in the A330-300 Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2016/06/03 We choose this seat 24h before our flight departure time, so it is free. The row space is a bit larger, which is good since we have an infant. It is relatively quite compared with the seat in the back area. Submitted by Hans L on 2016/06/01 for Seat 3H The business class in SAS has now been updated. Seats are of same type as e.g. Austrian. This is in my opinion one of the best BC seats right now in the common carriers. Very wide, comfortable and long. The only "problem" is that you may unintentionally move the seat due to very sensitive touch pad - but this is a complaint on high level. Entertainment system is absolute up to date, enormous selection of movies, music etc. Easy to operate. SAS did on this flight not provide sound dampening earphones, this is still to be improved. Service at SAS is as usual. OK, but not superb, quality of food is agreeable (but there is better in other business class carriers of Western Europe). Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2016/05/17 JFK to Copenhagen. Flight was terrible, 3/4 of the plane got sick and multiple 500-1000 ft drops during at least 4 hours of flight (Flight attendant told us SHE was scared after we landed). Anyway seats 55 A&B are marked as BAD and they really are. It's hard to sleep sitting up and only reclines about 2 inches. Avoid these seats at all costs. Unfortunately it was assigned by our company trip and we had just about the whole plane with just our group of 120 people Submitted by Håvard H on 2016/05/03 for Seat 52f This is a good seat with the extra wide aisle. You can stretch your legs out in to it without obstructing. Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2016/04/19 for Seat 20A Row 20A+B and 21A+B and the row in from are extremely noisy due to a hydraulic pump that goes on for 6-7 hours during flight. Avoid these seats for all costs! You ay even damage your hearing! Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2016/03/18 for Seat Business Seat N New cabin is great taking SAS from bottom to top. I especially like the privacy and storage. Only complaint on this trip from Pudong to CPH was that I couldn't get the wifi to work, not so important as I didn't ask for help, but anyhow. Food and wine service is very good. Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2015/09/13 for Seat 42B Leg room is better than i expected. Seatback reclines more than some other airlines. Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2015/07/08 for Seat 37C There is a small black metal box in which affects leg room for seat 37 C Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2015/03/03 for Seat 33A The little seat space is additionally limited by the black box under the front seat, so you've got only half of the leg space to somehow stick your legs. Crapy pehistoric "entertainment" system, which shows movies only in loop, so you have to wait for wathing it from the beginning and cannot stop or rewind it. So taking your own laptop or ipad might be a better option. Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2015/01/19 for Seat 42G This seat has less legroom than other standard economy seats. I could not fit in this seat at all, and therefor changed to the F seat where I could stretch without problems. I'm almost 2m tall. Submitted by Karl Ø on 2014/07/26 for Seat Row 23 Wanted to change from seat 31H from Oslo to Shanghai after checking SeatGuru. After 102 minutes of waiting for SAS Telephone service I was informed that the whole row 23 recommended by SeatGuru now are "Restricted Sseats", and cannot be reserved. Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2014/04/15 for Seat 42H 42H offers standard legroom with full recline and a bit privacy. Behind the seat is wall and crew area, there are no seat back kickers and you still have space if person front of you reclines. Curvature of the fuselage does not make this seat cramped, there is actually more space as aisle is wider and as three seat abreast in the middle starts from his same row. Only minus is that you will feel the movements of the aircraft more easily as this is one of the last row seats, but best of them. Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2013/09/19 for Seat 1E The crew uses the area in front of row 1. Everytime they entered or exited the area, the curtain would bump my legs. Very annoying. Furthermore, the recline was unnatural and not flat. Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2013/06/29 for Seat 2G I am 6'1" tall and I always have trouble with business class seats not having a long enough extension for the leg and foot rest. However, most of these types of seats (United, Lufthansa) have a foot rest than can be flipped up so at least you don't have the pain of hanging your ankles over the end of the leg rest. The SAS business seat also has this flip up foot rest but its profile is curved and only goes up about 2 inches. Consequently, you can't get any part of your foot to rest on it and it digs into your Achilles tendon. Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2013/05/28 for Seat 33H The restriction of legroom is severe and base of seat is at odd angle. Rough 8 hours of flight. Submitted by SeatGuru User on 2013/05/09 for Seat 5B seats are difficult to sleep in, feet are much lower than the rest of the body and the contour of the seat is not natural. The seat controls are difficult to understand and they all did not do what the diagrams indicated.
