Finnair strengthens its network in the Nordics, adding flights to popular Nordic cities and opening a new route to Alta in Northern Norway. From the 29th of March to the 22nd of October, 2026, Finnair will fly to Alta via Kittilä five times a week with a 68-seat ATR aircraft. Known for its arctic nature, versatile outdoor activities, and northern lights, Alta has also grown in popularity as a cruise ship destination in recent years.
In addition to Alta, Finnair will add Tromsø to its summer network, flying to this coastal city in Norway five times a week from Helsinki via Rovaniemi in the summer of 2026. Until now, the tag flight, operated with an ATR aircraft, has only been operated in the winter. Finnair will also add flights from Ivalo to Kirkenes to five weekly frequencies in summer 2026, two frequencies more than this summer.
“Northern destinations increasingly attract travellers seeking authentic nature experiences in the summer. Our network, extending through Lapland to Northern Norway, offers our customers a convenient way to experience several Nordic destinations within one trip, and you can also combine the trip with, for example, a cruise on the Norwegian coast,” says Perttu Jolma, Finnair’s Vice President, Network.
Finnair will also add frequencies to Nordic capitals for the summer of 2026. Stockholm and Copenhagen will get seven additional weekly frequencies, and Reykjavik will get two additional frequencies.
During the busiest summer holiday season from June to early August, Finnair will fly to Billund, Visby, and Bodøand and add two weekly frequencies to Mariehamn in the Åland island. It will also be easier than ever to enjoy the spring skiing season in Lapland, as the weekly frequencies to Ivalo and Kittilä will be increased for April 2026.
