SAS Scandinavian Airlines (SK, Copenhagen Kastrup) has placed a firm order for forty-five E195-E2s with purchase rights for another ten units directly from Embraer.
The carrier said that deliveries will begin in 2027 and take approximately four years to complete.
"The E2 is central to our strategy to build a modern, efficient fleet with strong performance. It enables us to serve more routes with lower emissions, better economics, and a premium experience for our passengers," chief executive officer Anko van der Werff said.
SAS currently operates thirteen leased E195s through its regional AOC, SAS Link. Its regional fleet also comprises fourteen CRJ900s under a long-term wet-lease agreement with Cathay Pacific, and thirteen ATR72-600s sourced from BRA - Braathens Regional Airways.
