Scannor is the new callsign for all SASBraathens flights.

This is however a very complicated matter. First of all:
- 20 September 2004 the company SASBraathens was established.
- three weeks before all BU-cabin crew and SASno-cabin crew were mergered into SASBraathens together with all the Bu-routes.
- As the pilots in the two companies hasn't come to an agreement regarding the merger. The AOC-application has been withdrawn until such an agreement is made.

So now we have a commercial company called SASBraathens wich handles all sales, marketing and administration. And we have two operative environments that are leased in to fly for SASBraathens with SCANNOR callsign. All other routes, including former SAS domestic routes and international routes are still belonging SAS and therefore using SCANDINAVIAN callsign. All former BU-flights now use SCANNOR and all other SK-flights still use SCANDINAVIAN.

The negotiations between the two pilot-unions have been postponed UFN.

Why SCANNOR ? Maybe because it rimes with SCANAIR ?
