SAS Eurobonus last week released few unfavorable Covid-19 related policies (read more here and here) that didn’t address the tier extension issue.

SAS took down the video below on Wednesday after right-wing, and hate groups hijacked the campaign that was supposed to present what is truly Scandinavian.
