“We are looking forward to welcoming S7 Airlines to Helsinki with their new service from Domodedovo,” says Hannu Sundberg, Finnair’s VP Commercial Partnerships. “The arrival of another modern, high-quality alliance partner in Helsinki also reinforces a vital oneworld hub between east and west.”
“We are pleased to develop our cooperation with Finnair as part of the international alliance oneworld, and within the present partnership agreement.
