Just a comment on some of the above points made.

Over the past decade there have been changes made to the SAS agreements. My understanding is that a few key things have happened
- Salary levels have in fact been lowered somewhat for all staff
- The rate at which salaries increase has been lowered significantly and especially for NEW staff.
- The number of block hours has been increased quite significantly
- The pensions have been made a lot less generous again, especially with effect for new employees

The low salaries you quote are likely right for recently hired cabin crew.

The DKK 40k per month was for sure right for cabin crew with significant number of years of employment although it sounds very rich for anyone with current agreements. It will not be very far off though.

What SAS is reportedly doing is that they are focusing the majority of their staff transfer to cabin crew with significant length of employment.

This reportedly means that employees who are earning well above DKK 30k per month will get on a new union agreement where overall levels are lower, and where they will not gain nearly the same benefit from length of service.

Whether it is fair is a big question and clearly the unions are taking a fight even if it is legal.

In my humble opinion two observations are important
1. The fight the unions need to take is not really with SAS, but with the airlines who refuse to even talk to unions. Fighting SAS is like them fighting their most cooperative counterpart.
2. I think CAU needs to explain why they were willing to have a much cheaper agreement with Cimber than SAS in the first place.
