Well, if it would be up to me. AGH is a fantastic venue!

The question is, is SAS like LH Group too big (both in economic value and as a Nordic brand) to fail? Probably not. Even though the Nordic governments won't like to see it gone, I can't see them massively financing SK over the next next 18 months (which I think are the real tough times for the foreseeable future)
