The cabin factor, i.e., the percentage of filled seats, amounted to 57%. That is an increase of 24% compared with December 2020.

“As expected, travel intensified in connection with Christmas and New Year, which was positive. However, the development related to the omicron variant of COVID-19 affected both demand and staff capacity throughout the industry, which had a negative impact on the actual number of flights throughout the month,” SAS CEO Anko Van der Werff noted in a press release.

He stated that the company is still affected by the pandemic and that it faces an unpredictable future.
