The completion of the A320neo rollout also makes it the first aircraft type in the SAS fleet to be fully equipped with Starlink.<\/p>\n<p>The airline\u2019s EuroBonus members can access the service free of charge, whether they want to work, stream, stay in touch or browse the internet throughout their journey.<\/p>\n<p>In Quotes<\/p>\n<p>Paul Verhagen, Executive Vice President and Chief Commercial Officer at SAS.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cToday, the installation across our entire A320neo fleet is complete, in record time.
