Finavia late night operations to be curtailed at Helsinki Vantaa

5-Sep-11 5:02 PM

Late night operations by some aircraft will be banned at Helsinki Vantaa International Airport from Apr-2013, under the airport’s new environmental permit.

SkyWork CEO, Tomislav Lang New Swiss airline SkyWork aims for “metro-capital” airport success

22-Aug-11 1:26 PM

Tiny Switzerland has another airline, this one based in Bern, the nation’s capital and fourth largest city.

Finland to see structural changes in air traffic. Upswing in LCC operations

6-Apr-11 4:23 PM

A record number of new routes from Finland to destinations in Europe have commenced as part of the summer 2011 season, driven by an increased LCC offering. As Norwegian CEO Bjorn Kjos stated last month upon the opening of a base in Helsinki, “the boom of low-cost flights is especially apparent in central Europe and in several Nordic countries. The structural changes to air traffic in Finland are only just beginning”.
