Today (July 9, 2020), Finnair announced that as Finland opens its borders for travelers, the carrier will serve over 30 destinations in July. On July 13, 2020, Finland will open their borders for travelers from certain countries including Australia, Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, the Netherlands, Slovenia, Slovakia and Switzerland. Finland will also allow work-related travel from China, Japan, South Korea and Thailand. Finnair guests entering the country from these nations will not be subject to quarantine requirements.

During July, Finnair will now offer around 70-80 daily one-way flights to domestic, European and Asian destinations including Tokyo, Seoul and Hong Kong. In Thursday’s announcement, Finnair’s Chief Commercial Officer, Ole Orvér said,


“Changes in travel restrictions are quickly reflected in the bookings of our flights and we can clearly see that people have a need and desire to travel. We are already now looking forward to the next round of new openings in two weeks’ time and the possibilities they will bring to our network and customers. The Finnish travel industry welcomes international tourists to explore the beautiful Finnish summer. The Northern white nights can be experienced for example in Finnish Lapland, the Finnish nature has plenty to offer for travelers who look for authentic experiences.”
