COPENHAGEN - Negotiations have resumed between Scandinavian airline SAS and its striking pilots, a mediator said Wednesday , as hundreds more flights were cancelled due to the strike action which has affected over 380,000 passengers.

"There are discussions underway in Oslo. They concern the three countries," Mr Jan Sjolin, a spokesman for the Swedish National Mediation Office, told AFP.Around lunchtime on Wednesday the airline announced it was cancelling 280 flights scheduled up to 2pm Thursday, affecting 20,000 passengers. That brings the total of cancelled flights to over 4,000 since the stoppage by 1,409 pilots hit domestic, European and long-haul SAS flights.

The Swedish Air Line Pilots Association, which initiated the strike, has said that months of previous talks had failed to result in a solution to pilots'"deteriorating work conditions, unpredictable work schedules and job insecurity".
