Disappointed with this decision. Anyway I’m looking forward to seeing the entire livery

Looks like mostly light gray with large white titles, blue tail and dashes of blue on the engines, there'll probably be a couple of red accents somewhere. I think I'll like it.

Given all these hints, I think this picture at Check-in.dk (which hasn't been posted yet, I think) represents the new livery best:

Please, not another tail-wrap in dual-tone

I actually think it might look quite good, but I would like to see them combine it with either the "SAS" or "Scandinavian" logo on the side of the engine in order to not make it too white and empty.

This is a carbon copy of the new Lufthansa livery...

Though the straight line going down from the tail looks much better than a curved one.

I always thought the SAS fuselage looked like a dirty white plane.

I think it looks half baked, as if they had to borrow an engine nacelle cover from a different airline and I agree with the user who wrote that the two tone tail extension in the blue color seems like a “me too” idea based on the new LH livery (which I also find very dull)

Here it is

Looks nice

I like the renderings. I hope the engines look as metallic and the fuselage as grey in real life – not very eurowhite at all. SAS's new livery beats Lufthansa's by far!

I am always redirected to the homepage. There is no page "newfleet". Or they don´t want to have anyone see it yet outside Scandinavia?

In Denmark, Can't see it either.

I could see it 10 minutes ago, but not now anymore, I guess they pulled it again...

Managed to grab the reveal video: https://gfycat.com/downrightleadingcomet

On the website, you can see more high resolution moving animation of the plane. This is the only crab quality version out yet.

But here it is!

I REALLY like it!

It's an improvement over the current livery with the "dirty white" fuselage and half painted engines.
The grey on the fuselage has some gold in it it seems, also the engines seem to be the same metalic grey as the SAS title instead of the grey of the fuselage.
Can't wait to see it with real light!

Happy it’s not eurowhite. It does actually look quite nice in its entirety

Yeah they pulled the reveal page again. But wow, it looks really good. I love it!

Will there be a livestream of the reveal? If so, where?

Its better than the current one! You rarely say that these days...

I love the grey/silver the rear half of the engine, subtly bold.

Same general theme as LH & EI ... originally from QF

I really like it, it looks exclusive and premium.
It is a nice step away from busy schemes like DY and FR.

I think that I would be proud to call SK my home airline.

It looks really great... I like the large silver logo on the side and the "Scandinavian" text under the belly...

A modern look with a feeling of SAS first DC3 metallic silver livery (engine in silver and the blue stripe) Hopefully it work in ”real life”

For those who want HD stills from the video:







I like the "Silver-metallic" engines!

DUDE.

Thanks for those boed!

If those engine cowlings are actually silver like the SAS logo.. OMG. Looks sexy.

There’s some Aeroflot to it with that silver fuselage and the nacelle contrast color actually.

That is brutally good looking!

That's the "premium look" Lufthansa was aiming for but didn't quite achieve...

After the recent flops like Lufthansa and Aer Lingus, it is a pleasure to see such an elegant livery. The big SAS titles are such a classic touch.

Congratulations to the creative team and of course to SAS! Can't wait to see it in the flesh.

Great photos in the press release!

Very nice... but where's the red? It desperately lacks a splash of red.

Dude! This looks amazing! Those silver cowlings and the huge silver SAS. A stunning livery, finally!

I love it, and echo what others have said upthread - after the recent LH and EI flops, this is a refreshing change. IMO, it's also a relief, as SK's current livery was already fantastic - just in need of a slight refresh. They did very well here.

These are just renderings! Need to see it for real......

A short piece on the new livery here for anyone interested:

LH lively was a major flop

The download photos feature in the press release doesn't work for me. Just getting a "It looks like we don't support this file format" (Windows 10, Photos)

First impression is that I like it! Now I need to see them live. For me the big SAS letters will require the most getting used to

SAS is ''the airline of Scandinavia'', and red isn't a characteristic Scandinavian colour. Sure, it's on the flags of a few of the countries around the region. But that's it. Whereas blue is, well, everything Scandinavian, and I assume the silver and gray are meant to represent the north and the wintery stuff. Also while I really liked the previous livery the yellowish/orangeish/beigeish colour that I still can't tell what it is combined with the blue and red made it look kinda awkward. This is a clean, minimalistic, professional boutique(ish) look. Like others said they nailed the look that LH was going for. And the silvers on the engines and fuselage titles make it a hundred times better. Bravo to SAS for making a fantastic livery

Sorry but why are blue more Scandinavian then red? Both the Norwegian and Danish flag are primarily red, where the primary color in the Swedish is blue. But blue is a more "premium feeling" and calmer color than red, and SAS' largest competitor has occupied the red color.
Wise chose to stick to only blue/silver to get a premium brand value, but not more "Scandinavian"..

Overall, I like the new livery, except the engines. Think it should have been all blue, and not silver..

If you look a the pictures in the press release, especially the one with a closeup on the tail, you'll see the shades of colour used for the flags are a bit different than on the real flags, for Sweden blue is darker and for Denmark and Norway, red is lighter and close to the previous red shade on the engines.

So, the first aircraft to show the new livery will be what? The A320NEO or the A350?

Gah, that's hideous. Looks like a mix of Lufthansa with Air Baltic engines.

SE-RSA will be delivered on 30th november. There are 4 NEO's before it: SE-ROJ, SE-ROT, SE-ROS, SE-ROG. Not sure which livery they have?

The first A350 is in the paintshop now - SAS have been publishing pictures of it being sprayed on their social media so it should be rolled out any day now.

I wonder if they'll repaint the NEOs due for delivery - if they are in the old livery?

Looks like it'll only be the Airbuses that get the new scheme as the 737s are all on their way out.

Those oversized SAS titles in silver on an off-white fuselage doesn't cut it with me. Might be better having the titles a bit smaller using the blue of the tail and having a drop-shadow or outline in silver.
