Finnair prepares for rapid growth

Finnair is preparing for a double-digit capacity growth spurt through Q1 of 2017, which will see several new aircraft arrivals. “Our accelerated growth is about to start. Our fleet is getting larger, personnel are increasing, and we are opening new routes and frequencies. This summer will be busier than ever. Finnair will fly to Asia 87 times a week. More and more of our routes will be operated with larger aircraft. We expect to reach 40,000 daily passengers at Helsinki Airport during this quarter. The launch of the new terminal wing at our hub in the summer will smooth our passenger journeys and improve the customer experience,” Finnair CE Pekka Vauramo said. Vauramo said Finnair did not grow much during Q1, but during the second, third and fourth quarter, and into Q1 of 2018, there will be double-digit capacity growth. <br/>
