Scandinavian Airlines said Friday that its Danish cabin crews had returned to work after a three-day strike that prompted the cancellation of more than 700 flights.

The airline was to cancel 28 incoming flights to Copenhagen on Friday because some crew members and airplanes were not located in the correct airports because of the strike, said an airline spokesman, Jens Langergaard. The traffic is now working fine, he said. We dont expect there will be any delays nor any cancellations other than the 28 weve scheduled.

The cabin crews walked off their jobs Monday to demand greater control over when they have weekends free and when they can schedule vacations. Including the cancellation of 28 flights, the airline scrapped 713 to and from Copenhagen because of the strike. The cancellations included flights from Amsterdam, Brussels, Helsinki, London, Oslo, Paris, Hannover, Hamburg and Stuttgart.
