During the day, the parties, including the Norwegian cabin union, have sat down for new negotiations. This after the union threatened to go on strike with 115 members from Friday if no agreement can be reached with the airline.

The dispute is not unexpectedly about salary levels, where the union has pointed out that SAS is 15 to 30 percent lower than competitors, such as Norwegian. From the union's side, they mean that they have stood still salary-wise for the past twelve years.

We have actually stood still for twelve years while others have taken part in a gradual salary increase, which has made them pull ahead, says Martinus Røkkum, who represents the cabin union.
