Our Finnish customers will be even happier with a host of popular international destinations to choose from including Brussels, Milan Bergamo and Warsaw for Winter 2021/’22.

Efficient operations and competitive airport charges provide the foundation from which Ryanair can deliver these eight new routes and increased connectivity to/from Finland. We have worked closely with Helsinki & Tampere airports to secure our return here for those that live, work or wish to visit the region. At a time when other airlines are reducing their schedules, we’re delighted to be making further investments in both our people and in airports throughout Europe and look forward to welcoming our Finnish customers on board in Helsinki & Tampere from October.

Mindful that Covid restrictions change regularly, customers can now book flights for a well-deserved break knowing that if they need to postpone or change their travel dates, they can do so up to two times with a zero-change fee until the end of December 2021.

To celebrate, we are launching a seat sale with fares available from €19.99 for travel until the end of March 2022, which must be booked by midnight, Friday 25th June. Since these amazing low fares will be snapped up quickly, customers should log onto www.ryanair.com and avoid missing out”.

Jet off to Finland from Brussels-Charleroi: Ryanair launches a new route to Helsinki

This winter, Irish airline Ryanair is launching a new route between Brussels South Charleroi Airport and the Finnish capital. From 2 November 2021, there will be 3 flights a week between Brussels-Charleroi and Helsinki.

After announcing the opening of new routes to Sweden (Stockholm-Arlanda, from 31 October 2021) and Denmark (Billund, from 1 November 2021), it is now the turn of the world’s second most northerly capital to be linked up with Brussels-Charleroi.

Helsinki, a port city on the Gulf of Finland, will be linked to Brussels South Charleroi Airport thanks to 3 flights a week on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays. The airline’s 189-seat Boeing 737-800s will leave Brussels-Charleroi at 06.30 and land in Finland at 10.15. The return flight to Belgium is scheduled for 10.40, arriving at Brussels-Charleroi at around 12.25.
The city is packed with cultural attractions, including a vast selection of museums to visit. Classic architecture and design are a specific feature of Nordic countries and play an important role in the urban landscape. Tourists can take the time to explore this vibrant, green capital, as well as the nearby islands.

Philippe VERDONCK, Chief Executive Officer of Brussels South Charleroi Airport, explains: “After the launch of a number of routes this summer and others announced for this winter, Ryanair continues to expand from our airline hub. In addition to one more European capital available to our passengers, they will now be able to fly to a new country.?
