STOCKHOLM, July 7 (Reuters) - Scandinavian airline SAS (SAS.ST) said on Tuesday its passenger traffic fell 14.1 percent in June from the same month a year earlier.

SAS said its passenger load factor -- a measure of how successful it was filling its seats -- was unchanged from the same month the previous year.

The airline, half-owned by Sweden, Norway and Denmark, said its yield in May -- the most recent month for which data is available -- was down 5.3 percent.
