If you have to catch a flight with Scandinavian Airlines tomorrow or in the next few days, you may want to be very careful now.

Due to a possible pilots strike in Denmark, Norway and Sweden, SAS has announced that it will cancel more than 200 flights in the world tomorrow. The airline advises anyone traveling on its flights tomorrow to check the status of their flights before traveling to the airport.

"Following the strike notice from Danish, Norwegian and Swedish pilot unions, SAS is taking precautionary measures to protect travelers and staff," SAS wrote on Facebook.

"This means that a number of flights will be canceled to avoid stranded travelers and crews."

Free to change tickets
At the present time, 28 departures from the Copenhagen Airport are to be canceled tomorrow – mainly morning flights -, while a flight from Aalborg is also on hold . No Aarhus or Billund flights are still impacted.

The pilots' union announced a strike on April 2 and, despite negotiations between the parties for a new wage bargaining agreement, an agreement has not yet been reached.

SAS stated that it would offer its customers the ability to change their flights for free, even if the flight had not been canceled or otherwise impacted.

According to the criteria, the flight must take place between April 26 and 29, carry a ticket number starting with 117 and be purchased from the website, the app or the SAS call center at most late April 24th.

If you booked through external travel agencies, travelers should contact them directly. You can get more information in English here.
