STOCKHOLM, Nov 30 (Reuters) - Scandinavian airline SAS
SAS.ST reported on Thursday a bigger August-October pretax
loss than a year ago and said it aims for a U.S. court to
approve its Chapter 11 restructuring plan in early 2024.
Long-struggling SAS, which is under bankruptcy protection
and bringing in new owners as part of a rescue plan, said pretax
loss was 2.11 billion Swedish crowns ($204 million) in its
fourth quarter against a year-earlier 1.70 billion loss.
In the third quarter, SAS made its first quarterly
profit since 2019.
