It’s great to see that Finnish airports are gradually recovering from the impact of the pandemic. The increase in the number of international passengers shows a positive trend in the tourism sector. Hopefully, with continued efforts and safety measures, the passenger numbers will soon reach pre-pandemic levels.
Do you think the increase in international flights is due to the relaxation of travel restrictions or other factors?
It’s likely a combination of factors contributing to the increase in international flights, including the relaxation of travel restrictions, pent-up travel demand, and possibly more affordable flight options. It will be interesting to see how this trend continues in the coming months.
