SAS ready to immerse Chicago passengers in a Scandinavian experience

SAS will unveil a new lounge at O'Hare International Wednesday. The changes in the lounge experience at O'Hare come as the carrier also is upgrading its on-board premium cabin experience to give high-margin passengers what the carrier says will be more of an "immersive understanding of Scandinavian cuisine and culture." The completely renovated and expanded SAS lounge at O'Hare now has a 2,000-square-foot footprint with seating for 117 passengers. The revamped lounge includes simple-yet-sleek new Scandinavian furniture, more work stations, and a large buffet with a range of food and drink that reflects aspects of Scandinavian cooking. SAS's new lounge will be available not only to the carrier's most elite frequent travellers and business class ticket holders, but also passengers booked in premium economy. <br/>
