The Scandinavian airline SAS will introduce a new high-speed internet service on board its aircraft at the end of 2025. As the company announced, the service will be provided via SpaceX's Starlink satellite network. The internet will be available throughout the entire flight, including takeoff and landing.
The new offer is aimed primarily at frequent flyers. Members of the EuroBonus frequent flyer program receive access free of charge. Whether and what fees will apply for other passengers has not yet been officially confirmed.
With the introduction of Starlink Internet, SAS joins a growing number of airlines that rely on satellite connections. This technology promises significantly higher speeds and a more stable connection than conventional on-board networks. The fleet will be converted gradually.
