2 March, 2018

CAPA - Centre for Aviation, in a report entitled: 'Finnair 2017: the former 'poor relation' growing strongly and now the most profitable Nordic airline', stated (27-Feb-2018) Finnair made a new high operating margin in 2017, when it also became the most profitable major airline in the Nordic region, beating SAS, Icelandair and the loss-making Norwegian with its margin. CAPA said this marks a strong recovery from the years following the global financial crisis, when Finnair struggled to make a profit and was the region's weakest performer. [more - CAPA Analysis]
