Do I need to be under 26 at the time of booking or time of departure for SAS youth tickets? I am 25 but I will be 26 when I plan on going on this trip, do I still qualify for the youth rate?

It is very likely that you might be challenged, as you need to present your id in order to board with a SAS Youth Ticket:
Eligibility: Valid for youth 0-25 years of age. Youth under 12 years must travel with adult 16 years or older. Fare not valid for unaccompanied minors. Passengers must present a valid ID at the time of ticketing and at the gate.
ID required: Valid passport must be provided as a proof of your age when boarding.
