Finnair expands BA codeshare

Monday, 20 Jan, 2025 0

Finnair has expanded its codeshare with oneworld alliance member, British Airways, as the Finnish airline continues to expand its reach in the UK

The airline is also targeting new customers in the Channel Islands and Gibraltar.

The expanded agreement will see Finnair add its code to an additional seven of British Airways’ domestic routes.

This enables customers to benefit from increased connectivity when travelling to Finland and beyond.

With immediate effect, Finnair will add its code to British Airways flights between London Heathrow and Aberdeen, Belfast City, Gibraltar, Inverness, Jersey, Manchester and Newcastle.

The move will enable customers to book these services directly via Finnair.

It allows travellers to fly from their chosen regional airport with British Airways, before connecting onto Finnair flights via Heathrow Airport.

UK travelers can then connect onto Finnair’s services to Lapland, the Nordics, and the Baltics, as well as onwards to the Far-East, including Tokyo, Osaka, Nagoya, Singapore and Seoul.

Anssi Partanen, Finnair Market Director Europe, said: “Over the past few years, we have seen a growing demand for our flights to Helsinki and beyond from destinations across not only the UK, but also the Channel Islands and Gibraltar.”

“Therefore, we are extremely excited to be expanding our codeshare with British Airways, to ensure customers travelling from across the country can enjoy seamless connectivity.”

It comes after Finnair launched its new expanded schedule from the UK in late 2024, adding 50% more flights between London Heathrow and Helsinki.

Finnair will now offer customers six daily flights from Heathrow, double daily flights from Manchester and up to seven weekly flights from Edinburgh to the Finnish capital.
