Flight information
Flights between Helsinki and Nanjing temporarily suspended from 20 November 2020 onwards
We will suspend our flights between Helsinki and Nanjing in China temporarily from 20 November 2020 onwards due to the policy regarding the threshold for coronavirus cases detected following a 2-week quarantine after entry to China.
We continue to operate to Shanghai once weekly, but our flight on 19 November will be cancelled, unlike previously informed the return flight on 21 November will operate normally. We are sorry for the harm this situation may cause you.
If you have a booking on any of the disrupted flights, we’ll contact you personally via SMS and/or e-mail. Please go to Manage booking and check that we have your current contact information.
Your options if your flight is cancelled:
- You can change your travel dates without a change fee maximum 360 days onwards from the day you are making the change. You can do this via Manage booking, or if you can’t make the change yourself online, our customer service will assist you. You can change your travel dates if:
