SAS og 11 September, 2001

[Vermont Viking]

Please forgive this post being in English; while I can read Norwegian and Danish, writing is a bit harder.

How were SAS flights affected on 11 September, 2001?
I understand one flight went to KEF and returned to CPH. How many SAS flights were diverted to Canadian airports and to which airports?

Hello there
As far as I recall only one SAS B767 was diverted to Canada..Think it diverted to Halifax,but memory of the date and diversions is fading

IIRC SK911 hade haft det nummer I mange, manger aar. Men de ville ikke ha' vaeret godt at det rutenummer mer, i saer til NYC! AFAIK bruges det rutenummer ikke af noget Amerikansk selskab.

You might be right, but other airlines uses 911
Among them is JL911 and TG911, these are 2 I remember as I have flown them, but there might others

Jeg husker vi hadde liggende her på trafikkktr en gang, en SAS bok fra begynnelsen av 90 tallet som hadde bilde av et Continental fly, som så ut var på vei inn i Empire State Building. Kanskje noen andre har den.
