SAS will cancel 1,700 flights in September and October
Scandinavian airline SAS will cancel 1,700 flights in the coming months due in part to a two-week pilots’ strike in July and delays in aircraft deliveries.
SAS, whose main owners are Sweden and Denmark, canceled some 3,700 flights during the strike, which the airline said put the airline’s future in doubt.

SAS said on Friday that 1,700 flights, about 4% of the total number of flights, were canceled in September and October.
“It’s the effects of the strike, but also the delay in aircraft deliveries and some other factors,” a SAS spokesman said.
