Finnair is one of the world’s oldest operating airlines. We are proud to offer the fastest and most convenient gateway between Europe and Asia, via Helsinki.

Finnair, then known as Aero, was founded in 1 November 1923. Aero received its first aircraft, a German-made Junkers F 13 in 1924. The Junkers was a seaplane: it used skis in winter and floats in summer. At the time, there were no commercial airfields on land in Finland. Aero operated its flights from downtown Helsinki, more precisely from Katajanokka by the harbour. The aircraft’s maiden commercial flight was to carry mail from Helsinki to Tallinn. Later it was used on flights between Helsinki and Stockholm in cooperation with the Swedish airline ABA. All flights were operated from solid ground after the last seaplane flight in December 1936. During the Winter War in 1939–40, civil aviation was placed under military control. As Helsinki was not safe enough, flights to Stockholm were temporarily operated from Vaasa. During the Continuation war in 1941–44, Aero once again was put under military control.

In 1949 Aero became a member of IATA (the International Air Transport Association) and received its airline code AY, the same that Finnair is still using today. Aero opened a new route to Moscow in 1956, being the first Western airline to do so after the war. Aero became the first small airline to enter the jet age in 1960 with its new Caravelle passenger jets. The first jet routes were Helsinki–Copenhagen–Cologne–Frankfurt and Helsinki–Stockholm. Later the Caravelles were also used on flights to Hamburg, Amsterdam, London, Paris, Zurich and Malmö. It started its expansion to Asia with direct flights to Bangkok in 1976. Non-stop flights to Tokyo started in 1983. With extra fuel tanks on the plane, the route took passengers over the North Pole. At the time, Finnair was the only airline offering non-stop flights between Western Europe and Japan. Finnair was the first airline to acquire satellite telephones for its DC-10 aircraft in 1986. This enabled passengers to call from the aircraft to anywhere in the world. All Finnair flights became non-smoking between 1997 and 1999. The decreasing demand for air travel after the terrorist attacks in New York on 11 September 2001 forced Finnair to take measures to cut costs and adjust capacity. More capacity was transferred to the Helsinki–Bangkok route due to the better market climate for Asian traffic. Finnair placed an order for nine Airbus A350 aircraft in 2005. Ten years later it would receive its first A350 XWB aircraft as the first airline in Europe. Finnair celebrated the 90th anniversary of its maiden flight in 2014. By this time there was a Finnair aircraft flying somewhere in the world every hour of the year. The same year, Finnair completed its 200-million-euro restructuring and savings program.

Finnair was expanding with new scheduled flights to Puerto Vallarta in Mexico, Havana in Cuba, Goa in India, Puerto Plata in the Dominican Republic, San Francisco in USA and Reykjavik in Iceland. Finnair increased its passenger numbers by over one million, and flew almost 12 million passengers in 2017.

Finnair is able to offer the shortest and fastest flight connections between Europe and Asia due to the geographical location of Helsinki on the great circle route between the continents. Taking the short route via the uncongested Helsinki-Vantaa airport represents an environmentally positive choice.
