Finnair is increasing its Asian frequencies in the coming summer. The
airline is adding a sixth MD-11 aircraft to its fleet at the end of spring,
helping it to further expand its flights to China. At the beginning of April, Beijing flights will become
daily and at the start of June, Shanghai will see five weekly flights. Hong Kong
has three weekly flights, so Finnair will have a total of 15 weekly operations to China.
"Finnair' offers Northern European leisure and business travellers the best
connections to China. Especially Scandinavian business passengers will have
an even easier time of planning trips to Shanghai with Finnair once we fly
there almost every single day. Chinese business and leisure passengers appreciate
the fact that all our Shanghai flights have excellent connections to our ever
expanding European network," says VP Network Strategies and Management Petteri
Kostermaa.
The number of Finnair's Asian flights has almost doubled in the past two
years. The company flies daily to Bangkok and from there four times a week
to Singapore and three times a week to Hong Kong. In Japan, Finnair flies
twice weekly to Tokyo and thrice to Osaka. And as of April the airline will
have daily frequencies to Beijing and starting June, five weekly flights to
Shanghai. |
