Nov 23, 2021 (newstodate): India will soon return on the schedule of Finnair after the "travel bubble" between India and Finland has taken effect from November 17, 2021.
   Finnair thus expects to return flights on the route between Helsinki and New Delhi from December 6, 2021, initially with two weekly rotations going up to three shortly before Christmas and up to four weekly rotations from February 2022.
   Finally, the full schedule with daily rotations will be reinstated from June 2022.
   Flights on the route were suspended as the Covid-19 struck in spring 2020, after which only scant repatriation flights were performed by Finnair.
   Finnair started operations to Delhi, India, from November 1, 2006, adding flights to Mumbai on June 26, 2007, and was also considering the opening of flights from Helsinki  flights to Bangalore or Chennai in 2008.
   Finnair's flights to Mumbai were, however, suspended and never returned from April 29, 2009, while plans for services to Bangalore/Chennai never materialized.
