New routes launched to Stockholm Bromma and Stuttgart

Helsinki Airport's flight connections improved further as Finnair opened a fast new connection from Helsinki to Stockholm Bromma and to Stuttgart on August 16. Finnair Vice President Jarkko Konttinen (left) and Helsinki Airport Vice President Jukka Isomäki opened the new routes. Both first flights were nearly fully booked.



Customers have now the option of choosing Bromma, situated very close to the centre of the Swedish capital and close to the Kista district, in addition to Stockholm's main airport, Arlanda.
 
Finnair flies to Bromma twice a day on weekdays and once on Sundays. In addition to Finnair flights, Danish airline Sun-Air started also two daily flights from Helsinki to Bromma on weekdays. Co-operation between Finnair and Sun-Air also offers Swedish customers fast connections via Helsinki to Asia.
 
- The new super-fast connection serves our business customers better, especially those who travel frequently between Helsinki and Stockholm, says Petteri Kostermaa, responsible for route planning at Finnair.
 
Finnair's flights to Stuttgart also opened on August 16. The flights have very good connections with Finnair's domestic services. For customers in the Stuttgart area, the flights provide excellent connections via Helsinki to Asia.
 
Morning departures from Helsinki to Stuttgart are on Mondays, Fridays and Saturdays, as well as daily evening departures. Morning return flights to Helsinki depart from Stuttgart every day, with evening departures on Thursdays, Fridays and Sundays.
 
In addition to these routes, Finnair will launch new direct service to Singapore in May 2011. It is one of Asia's most important business destinations and represents significant growth in Asian traffic for Helsinki Airport. Finnair's daily service will be the fastest connection between Northern Europe and Singapore," says Senior Vice President and Airport Director Juha-Pekka Pystynen.
 
Next year Helsinki Airport will offer 10 direct flights to destinations throughout Asia every day. In addition to this, there will be 12 weekly flights to Hong Kong.
