The figure was reported by the newspaper VG, which checked which SAS flights will go to and from Norwegian airports in the next few days – and then analyzed flight numbers on SAS.no.

A total of 571 of 944 flights on Saturday, Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday will “probably be canceled if a strike occurs.”

In that case, 60% of flights will be canceled. 

SAS mediation continues

SAS and the pilot representatives had not reached an agreement by midnight on Friday. The mediation effort continues, and a new deadline has been set – 11 AM on Saturday.

Thus, it is still not clear whether there will be a pilot strike. Around 900 pilots in Norway, Sweden, and Denmark will go on strike from Saturday if an agreement isn’t reached.
