Impacts of the political strike on Finnair flights on 11 March - 7 April 2024

We do our best to minimize the impact of the political strike on your travel plans.

Several trade unions in Finland have announced a political strike on 11-24 March 2024. The strike will affect, among other things, fuel distribution in Finland. According to the latest information, the political strike will continue until 7 April 2024, but there will be no impact on Finnair flights as of 22 March 2024. 

To mitigate the impacts of the strike on our customers, some of our long-haul flights on 11-21 March 2024 were operated with a planned refueling stopover during the journey, and therefore, the flight time was longer than normal. We follow the situation closely and assess the impacts of the strike on our flights. These political industrial actions are not related to Finnair, and we do our best to minimize the impacts on your travel plans.

We will update the latest information on this page. If there would be changes to your flight, we’ll contact you personally via SMS and/or email. Please go to Manage booking and check that we have your current contact information.

We are very sorry for the inconvenience and uncertainty this situation may cause you.
