Potential SAS Link cabin crew strike looming after stalled wage talks

The dispute over the collective agreement for SAS Link cabin crew remains unresolved after negotiations between Fellesforbundet and NHO Luftfart fell apart. A last-minute mediation meeting is scheduled for Friday at the Riksmekleren, with parties aiming to settle differences before the Saturday midnight deadline. Union leader Dag-Einar Sivertsen has highlighted disagreements over the proposed pay model, while NHO Luftfart’s Erik Lahnstein expects a challenging but solvable mediation.

Should the talks fail, a strike could commence on Sunday, potentially disrupting flights, though the exact number of affected flights and staff remains unclear. The mediation will also address concerns about possible layoffs of 24 members.
