Fifty destinations were served by Braathens, a Norwegian scheduled and charter airline that operated from 1946 to 2004.
23 of these destinations were in Norway and 6 were in Sweden. Braathens provided international services to 24 airports serving 22 cities in 17 countries. Braathens' main hubs were Oslo Airport, Fornebu; Oslo Airport, Gardermoen; and Stockholm Arlanda Airport. The main technical base was at Stavanger Airport, Sola. The destinations in Asia were served from 1949 to 1954. Then, Braathens became a domestic airline, and did not have international scheduled services again until 1987, except during part of 1960. From 1994, the airline market was deregulated and Braathens was free to operate domestically and within the European Economic Area. In 1997, Braathens bought Transwede and started domestic services in Sweden, but these were terminated in 1999. The company ceased serving all destinations in 2004, when Braathens merged with the Norwegian division of Scandinavian Airlines System to create SAS Braathens. (Full list...)
