I've flown SAS many times, and it has usually worked fine. There have been problems, but not more than on other airlines. For the vast majority of flights I've had no reason to complain.

HiFly is not a "partner", they are an airline that specializes in charter flights and wet leasing. But I'm sorry you had to travel on a Hifly-plane.

Yikes, that sounds pretty dreadful to have such disruptions in flight schedules.

Great to know about the sale. Just be aware that SAS sometimes charges a change fee and an even higher cancellation fee on many levels of service. I recently paid $375 to change a date of travel on a business class ticket, unlike (most) US carriers, so read the fine print. Specifically on United, there are no longer any change or cancellation fees, the funds go back into your account but need to be used within 12 months. (This excludes the US law that allows you to cancel a booking within 24 hours of making the reservation.)

Since the pandemic started, SAS flight crews have been really pleasant, including earlier this week arriving into ARN from SFO via CPH. (And BTW, my flight arrived early into CPH, immigration was about a 15 minute wait, & the 1-hour transfer time was more than enough to easily make the connecting on-time flight.)
