Finnair continues to target growth despite market challenges

Finnair CEO Turkka Kuusisto stated the challenges faced by the carrier at the beginning of 2025 continued into 2Q2025.

While Finnair recorded 3.1 million passengers (+3.1% year-on-year) and increased revenue 2.4% to EUR1,482 million in 1H2025, the carrier's operating results were affected by industrial action by the Finnish Airline Pilots' Association in Apr-2025 and Finnish Aviation Union (IAU) in May-2025 and Jun-2025.
