This makes Lufthansa the only airline so far to offer year-round international scheduled flights to Northern Finland.

Earlier, Lufthansa launched the route from Oulu Airport to Munich, Germany, on 16 December 2023. The route is currently flown twice a week, on Wednesdays and Saturdays.

Flights will also continue to be operated twice a week during the 2024–2025 winter season.

“The Oulu–Munich route has been an excellent addition to the route offering of our airports. The route has been popular with passengers since its launch and has significantly strengthened the international accessibility of Northern Finland. This popularity is now reflected in the continuation of flights throughout the year, which we are very happy about,” said Petri Vuori, Finavia’s Senior Vice President responsible for route development.
