Ich würde sie wirklich gerne mitnehmen, aber ich bin nicht besonders optimistisch 😅

I have never had any problems taking my crochet stuff with me, including semi-sharp scissors. Doubt knitting needles will be any problem.
I have flown with knitting needles several times (never SAS, but Widerøe) and never had any issues.
Technically, I guess they could be interpreted as sharp objects that, according to SAS, need to be checked, so there is some risk involved I guess. Wouldn’t worry too much about it, though, since they’re not explicitly forbidden and „the human factor“ counts quite a lot as well when it comes to the security check.
It depends on where you are going. Inside Norway? Shouldn’t be an issue, and it hasn’t been with me.
Are you traveling in the EU? [Strikkebloggen](https://blogg.strikkia.no/nyheter/kan-man-strikke-pa-flyturen-strikkepinner-pa-fly/) says that the laws inside EU and EØS permits knitting in both luggage and handbags.
That being said, it is entirely up to the companies that run the routes to decide what they allow on their planes (other than what is illegal by law).
My grandmother flies all with knitting gear all the time
Avinor is in charge of Norwegian airports and security, so their information on what is allowed through security is accurate. [Knitting needles are allowed](https://www.avinor.no/en/practical-info/luggage-rules/), even small scissors.
My wife asked at Tromsø airport check in whether it’s fine, and the lady at the counter was confused as to why someone would ask such a stupid question 😀
She was able to take them on board, without any issue whatsoever (European flight only).
I fly with knitting needles all the time with SAS.
Usually the airport will have specific guidelines on knitting needles and I’ve yet to see a European airport say they are not allowed. Going through security just have the relevant bit on the website if you have trouble. Otherwise the airlines will only know if you get your knitting out on the flight.
