Next year Finnair will add a seasonal service to Athens, Greece, on 5 April. The Greek capital will be served twice a week, on Wednesdays and Sundays, with Airbus A319s or A320s.

The flag carrier of Finland will also launch seasonal services to Dublin on 30 March and Malta on 2 April.

Timetables for the new routes will be designed for optimal connections with Finnair’s network of Asian destinations.

“With these new destinations we are responding to growing demand, particularly from Asia, so timetables for each of these new routes are tailored for the best possible connection to Finnair’s Asian flights,” says Petri Vuori, Finnair’s VP Global Sales.

“At the same time of course our Finnish and Baltic Rim passengers will also be able to enjoy what these fascinating destinations have to offer,” he added.

Service to all three destinations lasts until late October. The routes are now open for bookings, according to an announcement.
