CX & SK X
You have both missed the point of this issue. This is a classic case of union busting! If the management gets through with its plans of splitting up the three scandinavian pilot unions, they, the unions, will all have to pay for it in the end. It might not be visible in the short run, but eventually SAS, as we know it today, will be reduced to a diminutive 'flag carrierier' for the three SK countries, with the company's 'affiliates' handling the bulk of the air transport now covered by SAS aircraft and pilots.
