News for travel agents

AY269/270 TMP & AY229/230 TKU flights replaced by buses 02NOV-01DEC22

Hotspot

Due to changes in the operating environment, we regularly update our traffic program and are now making updates to the November traffic program. The number of passengers in Turku and Tampere is at such a level that we temporarily replace these routes with bus connections. Affected customers are informed directly and their updated travel info can be checked in GDS/NDC as well as in Finnair Manage Booking and in Finnair app.  

The changes do not require any actions on the bookings from the agents as Finnair updates the tickets at the same.
