The international WOASE 2015 conference will gather winter operation experts around the world at Helsinki Airport on 23–24 February.

“Helsinki Airport is a pioneer, and well-known for its ‘snow-how’, so we are a natural choice to host the conference. Finavia is proud to present its expertise to the delegates and share good practices,” says the host of the event, Heini Noronen-Juhola, Vice President, Aviation & Safety at Helsinki Airport.

The first day of the professional conference—by experts for experts—will consist of presentations on different sectors of winter maintenance from de-icing to technology, and on the second day the participants will observe winter maintenance know-how in practice at Finavia. An educational tour of the winter maintenance operations and de-icing hubs at Helsinki Airport will show the delegations how the runways are kept in summer-like conditions even during the winter.

Helsinki Airport will host the event, which is organized by Airport Focus. The previous conference was arranged at London Heathrow Airport two years ago.
