Air Passenger Rights with SAS: Delays and Cancellations
As a passenger flying with Scandinavian Airlines System (SK), you are protected by EU Regulation 261/2004 (commonly referred to as EU 261 or EC 261) in the event of significant flight delays, cancellations, or denied boarding. This regulation applies if your flight departs from an EU country, or if you are arriving in the EU on a European carrier such as SAS, even if your journey originates outside the EU. EU 261 ensures that passengers are entitled to care, assistance, and, in many cases, financial compensation when travel plans are disrupted.
If your SAS flight is delayed by more than 3 hours on arrival, or if your flight is cancelled without at least 14 days’ notice, you may be eligible for compensation. The amount of compensation depends on the distance of your flight:
- For flights up to 1,500 km: €250 per person
- For flights between 1,500 km and 3,500 km: €400 per person
- For flights over 3,500 km: €600 per person
To qualify for compensation, the delay or cancellation must not be due to extraordinary circumstances such as severe weather or air traffic control strikes. In addition to financial compensation, passengers are also entitled to meals, refreshments, hotel accommodation (if necessary), and communication facilities while waiting. These rights are designed to protect travelers and ensure fair treatment by airlines like SAS in the event of operational disruptions.
