Helsinki Airport connections will be further improved next spring, when Finncomm
Airlines launches new direct service to Gdansk. Beginning 27 March 2011,
Finncomm will fly daily to Gdansk in co-operation with Finnair.
"The new Gdansk route enhances Helsinki Airport's position as the leading
transit airport in Northern Europe. The fastest connection from Gdansk to Asia
is via Helsinki. The airport offers 10 daily flights to Asian destinations,"
says Senior Vice President and Marketing Director, Kimmo
Ruotsalainen.
According to Juhani Pakari, Managing Director of Finncomm
Airlines, the economy of Northern Poland is enjoying strong growth, and the
direct connection is especially well-suited to business travellers. In addition
to this, the region's three cities, Gdansk, Sopot and Gdynia, offer a wide
variety of possibilities for leisure travel.
"Finncomm will serve the Gdansk route using state-of-the-art, energy-efficient
ATR turboprop aircrafts, which are optimal for this type of service. They
consume very little fuel, thus allowing us to also keep our fares quite low,"
says Pakari.
In addition to existing routes to Warsaw and Krakow, the new Gdansk route offers
a third destination in Poland served by Helsinki.
