Jun 13, 2007 (newstodate): To strengthen the SAS Group's position, the Board of Directors of SAS has decided to give the company a new direction.
SAS is to concentrate on its core business flying to, from and within Northern Europe.
Certain units that do not belong to the core business - such as Spanair - will be sold.
Airline operations will be operated by Scandinavian Airlines Danmark, Norge, Sverige and International, Blue 1, Wider�e, airBaltic and Estonian Air.
Holdings in other airlines, Spanair, bmi, and Air Greenland, will be sold.
The future structure and roles of other operations, such as SAS Ground Services (SGS), SAS Technical Services (STS) and Spririt, will be evaluated.
The purpose is to determine which parts of its operations SAS should continue to operate on its own and which parts should be operated by other players. This evaluation is taking place during this autumn in consultation with affected employees and other stakeholders.
