SAS Scandinavian Airlines Airbus A330-300 - 80 Years
New
SAS marks the start of its 80th year of operations with a specially painted Airbus A330-300. The anniversary comes eight decades after SAS’s first intercontinental flight on September 17, 1946, when a Douglas DC-4 from Stockholm via Copenhagen, Prestwick and Gander arrived in New York after 25 hours. To mark the milestone, SAS has introduced a dedicated livery on one of its Airbus A330-300 aircraft. The aircraft is part of the airline’s long-haul fleet, which includes eight Airbus A330-300s, complemented by the Airbus A350, and A321LR. The livery features SAS blue across the entire aircraft. The Scandinavian flag has been reinterpreted as a reference to the classic 1980s livery.
