Finnair to add 4 short-haul routes
Finnair is to add services to the Greek island of Corfu, the Spanish islands of Ibiza and Menorca, as well as Reykjavik in Iceland, for summer 2017. Corfu and Menorca will join Finnair’s network between April 11 and Oct 28 2017, operating as a single weekly frequency. Ibiza, also once weekly, will run from June 17 to Aug. 12. The carrier will serve Reykjavik 4X-weekly, building on its existing codeshare with Icelandair. “Finnair’s route will offer one of the fastest connections between Asia and Iceland,” Finnair said. The new routes form part of Finnair’s growth strategy. During its recent earnings call, Finnair reduced its full-year growth target to 7% from 8%, blaming the late arrival of its A350s. Finnair was the European launch operator for the twinjet. <br/>
