The impact of the situation may also be felt on the days before and after the strikes, as passengers are rerouted from flights cancelled due to the strike. The strike affects ground operations at the airport, which may cause delays in the transfer of luggage to and from aircraft. As a result, baggage delivery times may be longer than usual. The airline is always responsible for baggage delivery.
You can check real-time flight information on the Helsinki Airport flights page. Note that if a flight is cancelled several hours before its original departure time, it will not appear in the listing. Individual flights may also need to be cancelled on Friday and Monday. These changes will be reflected in the flight listings on the website and on the terminal flight information displays. The decision to cancel a flight is always made by the airline.
Instructions for passengers
We ask passengers to follow the instructions provided by their airline regarding their flight and arrival at the airport. Additionally, we recommend that passengers check in online before arriving at the airport, if possible. Important items, such as medications, should be packed in carry-on luggage. Packing instructions for carry-on luggage can be found on Finavia's website.
For issues related to baggage delivery, please contact your airline. There are airline service points in the baggage claim area. Additionally, many airlines offer electronic customer forms that passengers can fill out if their baggage does not arrive at the baggage claim belts.
Read Finnair's instructions for passengers and ensure that the airline has your up-to-date contact information. Airlines communicate any changes directly to passengers.
You can also subscribe to Finavia's free Myflight service, which provides real-time updates on your flight information. Subscribe to the service by selecting your flight from the flight listing page.
We apologize for the inconvenience caused to passengers. The airport company Finavia is not a party to the strike, and the strike does not target Finavia.
We will update this announcement as necessary as more information becomes available.
