At two o’clock went SAS to normal air traffic. Strike The move was called off this morning after the parties had agreed a one-year contract.
SAS CEO Richard Gustafson think we now have a modern agreement.
– We have gone from a rather complex agreement, which has been built up for 50 to 60 years, to create an agreement that I believe is in time and that allows us to compete in a very, very tough global competition. Without sacrificing our pilots must be employees of the SAS, with the collective agreement in SAS, and that they have today, says Rickard Gustafson.
SAS states not today how big wage agreement gives or what the agreement will cost the company.
The pilots have had to agree to the flying long lines may work more on that they get better career opportunities.
One contentious issue was that SAS wanted to seasonally adjust working hours so that pilots fly more in the summer, when more people travel, and less in the winter.
Chairman of SAS pilots in Sweden, Peter Larsson thinks this resolved favorably.
– We have established various types of säsongsdeltider which we expect will be quite popular out there among the pilots. It’s a tough agreement. We had not been in mediation for a week and negotiated for months if it has been easy. There is an agreement that will increase the working hours of our long-haul pilots and there is an agreement that positively seen gives greater security for jobs and less risk of flagging out and the hiring of other companies, says Peter Larsson.
It remains to SAS to agree with the Norwegian pilot slot.
Many passengers were affected by the strike threat. Some were left on the ground, some of them could be rescheduled, others fly as usual after the agreement.
At the airport in Luleå Anna had Torsson Boden some understanding of strike layoff.
– Absolutely. Sometimes, it must perhaps affect more people for it to take effect.
– I’m not familiar with why they are on strike but it’s boring for a third party. I was once in Paris and got to drive the car home. The 390 mil from Charles de Gaulle and here, says Tryggve Bergman.
