"As for Air France-KLM's stake, SAS said it would "continue to operate and serve its customers as usual throughout the implementation of the transaction," expected to come during the second quarter of 2024."

So I think you're quite safe, and I would expect anyone buying for anything near term not to have to worry.

The Korean Air/Asiana merger has been bogged down in antitrust reviews around the world.

This one could be too, though perhaps not as long. But when your press release says "In doing so Air France-KLM will strengthen its footprint in Scandinavian markets." I could see competition agencies taking an interest.
