Star Alliance member, SAS Scandinavian Airlines is once again offering interesting premium economy fares from Oslo to San Francisco starting at €760 (~NOK 8,871). SAS’ premium economy is really eye-catching as it includes free lounge access in addition to a checked bag.
Our availability calendar highlights all possible flight dates at the lowest price for trips up to 28 days. It will forward you to SAS’s website.
First, you will fly one of SAS’ or its subsidiaries’ narrowbody aircraft to Copenhagen in SAS Plus. Then you would get on an Airbus A330 to San Francisco with a 2-3-2 configuration in premium economy.

Why is booking with an airline better than with an online travel agency?
More often than not, online travel agencies offer lower fares than airlines do. We still recommend booking with the airlines directly. There are two main reasons for that:
Better Customer Service
In case any problems like delays, cancellations or missed connections arise, you can communicate directly with the airline. The airline has to take care of you because you have a contract with them.
If a travel agency issues your ticket, you may have to reach out to them first. You also depend on your OTA to forward information like flight changes instead of receiving them directly from the airline. In many cases, you may get a prime exhibition of responsibility shifting rather than problem-solving.
This especially applies to premium tickets. You don’t want to spend more than €1,000 to wind up with some budget OTA’s telephone hotline in case anything goes wrong.
Baggage and Other Fees
Economy fares not including hold luggage are industry standard by now. In most cases, travel agencies charge much higher baggage fees than the airlines themselves. If bags are not included in your fare, airlines are often the cheaper alternative.
This also applies to other things like food services, insurances or priority treatment. In almost all cases, you pay less for additional amenities when booking on the airlines’ website.

SAS sells these tickets in booking class A. A trip from Oslo would get you roughly the following mileage:
- 17,380 Award Miles on Etihad Guest
- 17,380 Miles on Air Europa Suma
- 15,180 Award Miles + 68 XP on Flying Blue

Information & Tips for USA
The United States offers a wide range of tourist sights, from national parks like Yellowstone and the Grand Canyon to cities such as New York, Los Angeles, and Washington, D.C. The currency is the U.S. dollar (USD), and card payments are widely accepted. Prices vary by region but can be high in major cities, especially for accommodation and dining. Weather differs greatly across the country—winters can be harsh in the north, while the south often stays mild; summers are generally hot and humid in many areas.
The U.S. transport infrastructure is highly car-dependent, especially outside major cities. Urban centres like New York, Chicago, and San Francisco have functional public transit, but many other cities have limited options. Between cities, domestic flights are common for long distances, while intercity buses and Amtrak trains cover some routes, though often with slower speeds and less frequency compared to other countries. Without a car, getting around can be inconvenient in many parts of the country.
