The Scandinavian airline SAS confirmed a record order at a press conference in Copenhagen on Tuesday, committing to as many as 40 twin-aisle aircraft from Airbus's A330 family to renew and expand its long-haul fleet.
At list prices the jets carry a combined value above $10 billion (€8.75bn), though, as is standard in the industry, SAS is likely to have negotiated a substantial discount for such a large bulk purchase.
