SAS C/As on strike?

Apparently, both the Swedish and Danish cabin attendant unions are threatening to go on strike. Anyone who knows what went wrong? They didn't get more time off and still feel they should earn more than the F/Os?
A strike isn't exactly what that company needs right now...

Pilots have their meals onboard most of the time.
Cabin crews can´t really have their meals onboard because of the short turnarounds and because they have to take care of the pax during cruise.

While working for 8-10-12 hours a day it´s not surprising that they want time to eat. I just hope that they found a solution that allows us to continue with effective scheduling.

Norwegian and swedish cabin crews has had reduced terms and conditions since 9/11, unfortunately that cannot be said about the danish cabin crews who´s the most expensive on the globe.

Get your facts straight!

Increased salary was not even mentioned in their demands! They required satisfactory meal breaks and not sometimes having to work as much as eight hours before actually being able to have one! They also requested for minimum rest of at least fourteen hours after any shift being longer than twelve hours, not being rostered longer than 42 hours per week (they work five days on, four days off) and overtime pay for any exceeded hours!
