Work Stoppages at Helsinki Airport: Impact on Finnair Flights

Strikes at Finnair in July 2025: What Passengers Need to Know

In July 2025, significant disruptions are expected at Finnair due to strikes by the Finnish aviation union. The work stoppages mainly affect ground staff at Helsinki Airport, including customer service, baggage handling, aircraft maintenance, as well as cargo and catering services. Finnair has already cancelled several flights for early July and advises passengers to adjust their travel plans if necessary.

Affected passengers can rebook their flights free of charge. In addition, travelers are entitled to compensation and assistance with extra costs—such as hotel stays or meals—in the event of cancellations or significant delays. Passengers are therefore advised to carefully check their flight details and stay informed in advance to avoid inconvenience.
