Group market trends and yield development
SAS Group carried 3.3 million passengers in November, up for the 32nd
consecutive month. On a 12 months basis the Group has carried more than 41
million passengers. The Dash 8 Q400 was during November successively replaced by
leased in aircraft with larger seat capacity, which had a negative impact on the
Group's load factor and particularly in Denmark and Sweden.
Yield for Scandinavian Airlines in October was up 4.5%, which was somewhat
higher than earlier indicated. The yield is positively affected by good capacity
control, active yield management and positive effects from the new commercial
initiatives. For November 2007 the yield is expected to be in line with last
year. 

The market is characterized by good demand and passenger growth. The yield
environment continues to be favorable and is also affected by higher fuel
prices. There are still uncertainties regarding the strength of future growth as
well as the competitive situation and the record high jet fuel prices.

Intercontinental traffic decreased 0.5% in November, but the load factor was up
2.8 p.u. SAS Group European traffic increased by 5.8% with a slightly lower load
factor. 
airBaltic's traffic increased by strong 55.7% and with significantly improved
load factor. Spanair grew by 6.2%. Widerøe's traffic decreased by 1.8%, but with
improved load factor. Blue1's traffic decreased by 13.5%.
