Finnair to add frequencies between Tallinn and Helsinki

BC, Tallinn, 01.09.2017.Print version
The Finnish carrier Finnair is set to add 17 new weekly frequencies to the Helsinki-Tallinn service in the summer 2018 season, flying up to ten times daily between the two capitals, reports LETA/BNS.

In addition, the Finnish airline will add three new destinations and add capacity to its popular long-haul destinations.

 

Up to three additional departures per day will be made in the Helsinki-Tallinn service in both directions. "The main purpose of the additions is to ensure a smooth connection with different connecting flights," Arunas Skuja, general manager for the Baltic countries and Eastern Europe at Finnair, said in a press release.

 

The number of frequencies between Tallinn and Helsinki will increase by 17 from next year to up to 10 daily flights.

 

"Every day, a new flight one hour later will be added after each morning departure, on four days a week one flight in the early afternoon, and on six days one additional flight during the evening peak traffic will be added," Skuja said.

 

All the additional departures from Tallinn are timed to fit in with the timetables of departures to New York, Chicago, destinations in Europe and Asia.

 

Finnair is about to add three new destinations to its summer 2018 timetable. The new Asian destination will be Nanjing, the seventh destination for Finnair in China, with the first departure scheduled for May 13.

 

As of July 1, a four-times-a-week service between Helsinki and Lisbon will be added and from Apr. 23 daily flights will be launched between Helsinki and Stuttgart.
