Finnair launching Thailand flights from Sweden

Finnair is launching long haul direct flights from Sweden for the first time to destinations in the Far East and the US.

The Finnish flag carrier will now operate non-stop long-haul services from Stockholm’s Arlanda Airport to Bangkok and Phuket in Thailand, and Miami in the US for the winter season 2021/2022.

All three routes will be operated by the airline’s Airbus A350 aircraft.

Ole Orvér, Finnair Chief Commercial Officer, said: “We are excited to meet the travel needs of our Swedish customers with a non-stop service from Arlanda to Thailand and Miami, which are among the top winter holiday destinations for Swedes.”

Finnair’s five-times a week flights to Bangkok in Thailand will launch on 22 October, with flights departing on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays and Sundays.

From 28 November, a weekly service will operate during the peak winter sun holiday season up until 22 April, 2022.

A day later on 23 October, a twice-weekly service to Miami will launch, with flights departing Stockholm each Wednesday and Saturday.

Two additional flights will operate on Mondays and Fridays from 29 November until 22 April.

On 24 October, Phuket service takes to the sky with flights departing from Stockholm every Sunday, with more frequencies added on Thursdays from 4 November and from Tuesdays as of 30 November.

Finnair already flies to Bangkok, Phuket and Miami from its home base at Helsinki in Finland.
