Start-up Great Dane edges into Swedish routes

Start-up regional operator Great Dane Airlines is expanding its fledgling network from Aalborg into its Scandinavian neighbourhood. It is planning to open services to Stockholm, serving Arlanda airport, as well as the city of Gothenburg. Although flights will commence Nov 14, the services will be relatively infrequent, just once every 2 weeks. Great Dane says the departures to Stockholm will take place in "odd weeks" and Gothenburg in "even weeks". While there are no air services connecting Aalborg to either Swedish city, both are served multiple times daily from Copenhagen. Aalborg is geographically closer to Gothenburg than to Copenhagen, but Great Dane would be competing with frequent ferry services to Gothenburg out of the Danish port of Frederikshavn. <br/>
