As we approach the end of the year, it’s time to set our sights on what’s coming in 2025. One exciting development is Norse Atlantic Airways’ plan to establish operations in Sweden, with Stockholm ARN to Bangkok (BKK) announced as the first route.

It seems logical that Norse picked BKK as their starting point — with 162,000 passengers in the past 12 months, it is by far the largest long-haul market from ARN.
Inspired by this, we analyzed the long-haul O&D markets (5000+ km) from ARN to uncover further opportunities for Norse or other carriers. Here are some key findings:
The next largest markets are Newark (EWR) and New York JFK, underscoring strong transatlantic demand.

The largest unserved markets? Los Angeles (LAX), San Francisco (SFO), and Boston (BOS) — potential candidates for future expansion.

Strategic long-haul connections like these could further strengthen ARN’s role as a gateway for both leisure and business travel.

Great news! Malaysia Airlines has announced it will restart its service from Kuala Lumpur (KUL) to Paris Charles de Gaulle (CDG) in March 2025. Paris CDG isn’t just another destination—it’s currently the #1 unserved market from Kuala Lumpur by passenger demand, making this move a significant step in reconnecting key long-haul markets. 🌍

But Paris is only the beginning. Using BEONTRA’s Route Forecasting solution, we’ve uncovered other top unserved markets from Kuala Lumpur, including Cairo (CAI), Zurich (ZRH), Milan Malpensa (MXP), and Frankfurt (FRA). These routes represent untapped potential, offering substantial opportunities for future growth.

As Malaysia Airlines reestablishes its global presence, BEONTRA’s data-driven insights highlight clear opportunities for expanding their route network. The resumption of service to Paris is a strong start, and we’re excited to see which routes could follow next!

The global transition to sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) is rapidly gaining momentum. By 2050, legislation is expected to drive SAF to comprise 75% of jet fuel use in the UK and 70% across the EU. In the USA, the Grand Challenge Roadmap outlines a target of 35 billion gallons (130 billion liters) of SAF annually.

🌱 The challenge? Airports will need to invest heavily in infrastructure to support this diverse fuel mix – SAF from biomass feedstock, synthetic SAF from captured carbon, pure hydrogen, and even electric alternatives. This shift from a single fuel type to a complex ecosystem requires forward-thinking planning.

🚀 Where BEONTRA comes in: Our demand forecasting expertise helps airports navigate this complex transition. We deliver accurate forecasts and flight-by-flight design schedules for any time horizon, enabling airports to anticipate aircraft movements and their specific fuel needs. With these insights, airports can strategically plan the infrastructure necessary to support SAF adoption, ensuring they’re ready for the future of aviation.
