“To move from the old to the new is the only tradition worth keeping”. These words were written by the founder of Scanadian Airlines Wallenberg, and are as valid today as they were back in 1946 when the company started.
The Boeing 737 has served the airline well over the years since it was first introduced to the fleet, but now the carrier says it’s time to say goodbye to this iconic plane. As part of the airline's move to newer, next-generation, more efficient aircraft, which SAS has been phasing in for the last few years, it also sees the upcoming retirement of older fuel-hungry jets.
On 19 November, Dag Viking will complete the final commercial Boeing 737 flight for SAS. It happens under flight number SK737, on a memorable trip from Stockholm to its home base in Oslo.
