SAS har bestilt 5 Boeing 737-800 og 12 Boeing 737-700 til den norske og svenske produksjonen. I kvartalsrapporten for 2. kvartal antydes det at flere fly skal bestilles innen året er omme.
SAS skal innen 2015 skal kvitte seg med 12 737CL i Norge og 9 MD-80 i Sverige, noe som gjør det nødvendig med flere fly om det skal være mulig med videre ekspansjon.
Vi bør vel også vente oss en bestilling på innleide fly i A320-familien til den danske produksjonen.

Efficiency enhancement and modernization of fleet
SAS works continuously to develop its fleet strategy and
some major decisions have been made during the year to
simplify the aircraft fleet. Currently, two thirds of the fleet
comprises Next Generation aircraft.
In Oslo and Stockholm, SAS will operate using exclusively
737 Next Generation (NG) aircraft. Not later than 2015, the
remaining 20 MD80s and 737 Classics will have been
replaced. SAS has already signed a leasing contract for
17 aircraft of the 737NG model and intends to contract more
aircraft before 2011 is over.
In Copenhagen, the objective is to achieve a fleet comprising
only aircraft from Airbus, the A320 family. SAS has signed a
contract to purchase 30 new A320neo (New Engine Option)
aircraft for delivery from 2016 and an option for a further 11
A320neo. However, in the meantime, the 17 MD80 aircraft
will be replaced by leased A320s.
In addition to the streamlining of the fleet using these
measures, it will become more environmentally friendly. The
A320neo will have 15% lower fuel consumption and 50%
less noise footprint than the current 737NG and A320
aircraft
