Denmark, Sweden and Norway are among the most environmentally conscious countries in the world. SAS, as their national airline of the region, has clear environmental policies and environmental objectives.

By 2020, the relative release of climate-changing emissions must be halved per unit produced compared with 2006. Converted into absolute numbers, this means that total emissions must fall by 20%, assuming a 4% growth in passenger numbers during the same period. This will be done by continuing to work on improvements, including increased energy efficiency, renewal of the aircraft fleet, more efficient flight management, and a low admixture of bio-fuels based on sustainable and renewable sources.
 
To offer greater freedom of choice, SAS is a member of the Star Alliance, whose 29 airlines serve more than 1,200 airports in 185 countries around the world.
