SAS introduces Starlink connectivity across entire fleet

Scandinavian Airlines (SAS) is the latest airline to sign up for the Starlink in-flight connectivity service from SpaceX. The airline will begin phased rollout of the technology across its entire aircraft fleet at the end of 2025, following installation of low-drag Starlink aeroterminals.

Starlink uses low Earth orbit (LEO) technology to deliver internet all around the world, leveraging advanced satellites to provide connectivity across oceans and remote locations. Coverage can be enabled in challenging regions like the North Pole, and over the Atlantic Ocean or North Sea – areas that can sometimes be affected by disruptions from conventional satellite services.

“By introducing this new technology, we’re connecting our passengers to the world like never before,” said Paul Verhagen, chief commercial officer at SAS. “We’re putting an end to frustrating interruptions and ushering in a new era of connectivity. Whether flying over the Atlantic or the North Sea, our passengers can now count on a connection that is as stable and seamless as it is fast.”

SAS passengers will be able to enjoy the high-speed, low-latency cabin wi-fi service for free, from the moment they board until they disembark, offering a significant improvement over the current systems that activates only after takeoff and disconnects during descent.

“We’re excited to provide reliable, high-speed internet across the entire SAS fleet and help level-up the inflight experiences for passengers and crew from gate to gate,” said Jason Fritch VP of Starlink enterprise sales at SpaceX. “We’re especially proud that Starlink can offer connectivity for passengers that’s as good if not better than at their homes while flying across the Atlantic, North Sea and North Pole, which historically had been challenging for in-flight internet.”

“This is a game-changer for our travellers,” added Verhagen. “Gate-to-gate connectivity isn’t just an improvement – it’s a breakthrough in convenience and reliability. It gives our customers the freedom to work seamlessly, stay connected, and enjoy uninterrupted entertainment throughout their flight.”
