Friday, August 23, 2024 The recent discussions mediated by the National Mediator’s office did not culminate in a resolution between SAS and the cabin crew unions, NKF and SNK, in Norway. As a result, beginning the morning of August 23, the unions have initiated a strike. SAS is keen on resuming mediation efforts to find an agreeable resolution swiftly.
These negotiations are crucial as they are associated with the renewal of the Collective Bargaining Agreement. SAS is currently focusing on managing the situation with minimal disruption to its flight operations. The airline is actively working to assist affected passengers by providing alternative booking options and delivering timely information to mitigate any inconvenience.
Although the strike has led to operational adjustments, the impact is limited, with a majority of flights proceeding as scheduled. SAS continues to prioritize the smooth functioning of its services and maintaining its flight schedule wherever possible. Passengers planning to travel are encouraged to visit the SAS website at flysas.
