Jan 18, 2019 (newstodate): Long awaited, the Chinese carrier Tibet Airlines is really to launch flights from China to Finland in 2019.
According to Finavia, Tibet Airlines will commence flights from Jinan, China, to Finland on April 8, 2019, as the first Chinese airline to operate at Helsinki Airport, and route to Finland will also be the airline's first connection to Europe.
Bolstering Helsinki's role as a prime hub for air traffic between northern Europe and China, the airport will see 44 weekly flights towards China alone in the coming summer schedule.
Actually, the launch of services to Helsinki from Jinan was earlier slated for March 2018 already, but this obviously did not go through.
Tibet Airlines operates a fleet comprising 29 Airbus aircraft including five Airbus A330-200.
