Capacity and number of passengers remained stable - significant decline in North Atlantic traffic

In September, Finnair carried 1,014,700 passengers, corresponding to the level of September 2024. Passenger numbers grew significantly in Asian traffic and slightly also in European traffic but declined significantly in Middle Eastern and North Atlantic traffic and clearly also in Domestic traffic.

Overall capacity, measured in available seat kilometres (ASK), remained stable. Capacity grew clearly in Asian traffic, driven by added frequencies to Tokyo, Osaka and Nagoya in Japan. Capacity increased slightly also in European traffic. In North Atlantic traffic, capacity declined clearly due to fewer frequencies to Dallas. In Middle Eastern traffic, ASKs decreased due to the end of cooperation with Qatar Airways on flights between Stockholm, Copenhagen and Doha on 15 January 2025. Also in Domestic traffic, capacity decreased slightly. Including wet lease outs, overall capacity also remained stable.

Finnair's traffic, measured in revenue passenger kilometres (RPK), was stable. RPKs saw growth in Asian and European traffic, while declining in Middle Eastern, North Atlantic and Domestic traffic.

Passenger load factor (PLF) increased by 1.1% points to 77.3%. PLF improved in Middle Eastern and Asian traffic but declined in North Atlantic, Domestic and European traffic.

Total cargo tonnes declined by 5.7%. Revenue cargo tonne kilometres declined by 3.0%.

In September, 83.1% of all Finnair flights arrived on schedule compared to 79.7% in the comparison period.

Traffic statistics for October 2025 will be published on Thursday 6 November 2025.

* The number of passengers and cargo tonnes for January-November 2024 were corrected in December 2024, with a total impact of 59,100 additional passengers and 828.7 additional cargo tonnes for the period.

• Change %: Change compared to the corresponding period in the previous year (p = points)
• Available seat kilometres (ASK): Total number of seats available × great circle distance in kilometres
• Revenue passenger kilometres (RPK): Number of revenue passengers × great circle distance in kilometres
• Passenger load factor (PLF): Share of revenue passenger kilometres of available seat kilometres
• Available tonne kilometres: Number of tonnes of capacity for carriage of passengers, cargo and mail × great circle distance in kilometres
• Revenue tonne kilometres: Total revenue load consisting of passengers, cargo and mail × great circle distance in kilometres

The reported distance-based traffic figures do not consider longer routings caused by airspace closures but are based on the great-circle distance in accordance with the industry practice.
