You'd think that things would be improving if anything due to experience and superior technology but this lot have turned into a circus. This was my very first trip back to Norway in 3 years. They had problems disconnecting some service machine/tractor from the plane (?) A dreadful experience! I used to travel with SAS a lot working previous jobs on rotation in Norway and they were excellent. How in the name of sweet Jesus could they possibly be late for a connection that was already 2 1/2 hours behind schedule? 2. Waiting for 13 passengers on a connecting flight from Amsterdam.

I got into Bergen at 2.10am instead of 10.55. SAS customer service motto should be “we’ll get it to you eventually if we get around to it.” Hopeless and frustrating.įlight from Oslo to Bergen was delayed by over 3 hours last night. And there is not a single human being to speak to through their automated system. Apparently, SAS does not take seriously getting delayed luggage to its customers. Now, 24 hours later, I still see it in Oslo, even though a delayed luggage trace was initiated on arrival in Tromsø, so it failed to be loaded on the THIRD available flight (this morning). Got to Tromsø, saw that bag had gotten to Oslo by afternoon, in time for the last two flights of the day to Tromsø. In Oslo 2 hours later I saw bag in same place. SAS was unable to manage checked baggage transfer in the extended time it took us to get through passport control and security and walk from Terminal 2 to Terminal 5 - Apple AirTag showed bag in offload area while we waited. Hopeless baggage handling - use carry on only!Īrrived in Arlanda on 3 August at 7:30 am via United Airlines for onward connection via SAS to Oslo and on to Tromsø.
