Finnair April 2025 traffic summary: Passenger growth despite strikes, boost from Easter

Share

Finnair carried 968,600 passengers in April 2025, up 6.6% year-on-year, aided by Easter travel demand despite industrial action-related cancellations.

Capacity (ASK) rose 5.9%, driven by added flights to the U.S., Japan, and Finnish Lapland. Middle East capacity fell following the end of Qatar Airways’ cooperation. Revenue passenger kilometres (RPK) grew 10.5%, with gains across most regions. The passenger load factor improved to 75.7%.

Cargo volume was stable, and punctuality improved to 80.2% of flights arriving on time.
