Finnair heads for Seoul on 02-Jun-08

South Koreans are expected to account for the majority of passengers on the new route, especially during the Summer season that is now getting under way. Finnair also offers connections from Helsinki to over 40 European cities.

The demand for air traffic between South Korea and Europe is continuously increasing. As a consequence of the growth in South Korea’s export industry, the new route is expected to be popular with business passengers. In addition to the opportunities that it offers to the business community, the new route has great potential for tourist travel from Asia to Europe, while the area is also increasingly popular as a leisure destination for Europeans.
