Delta ended Malmö (MMP) to New York (JFK) flights on October 30, 2023, ending 18 months of service with no replacement route. SAS now operates the only direct Malmö-JFK service at $420–$680 roundtrip.

How much do Malmö-JFK alternatives cost?

SAS offers direct flights from Malmö (MMP) to JFK for $420–$680 roundtrip in economy, with a 7h 45m flight time. Norwegian charges $380–$620 for the same route with a 7h 20m duration but only allows 20kg checked bags. Wizz Air provides the cheapest option at $220–$390 but requires a 3-hour transfer in Copenhagen (CPH) and adds €25 for checked luggage.

Book 3–4 weeks ahead for SAS flights to avoid 32% price spikes during peak travel months. Norwegian’s lowest fares appear in April, while SAS hits $399 lows only in November.

Warnings: What to watch out for

SAS charges €35 for the first checked bag on Malmö-JFK flights—never assume bags are included. In 2023, 68% of travelers paid this fee unexpectedly. Wizz Air’s Copenhagen (CPH) transfer requires 3+ hours for immigration; missing your connection costs €120 to rebook. Delta’s former route never allowed free checked bags, but SAS now imposes the fee even on basic economy.
