FINNAIR ENHANCING YYZ SERVICE

Next summer Finnair will operate its seasonal service to Toronto, with upgraded two-class Airbus A330 widebody aircraft. Schedules will be timed to match speedy connections throughout Finnair’s network, particularly in the Nordic-Baltic region, Eastern Europe and Russia. Toronto service will operate from June 1 to Sept. 21, 2014, on Tuesdays, Friday and Sundays and will last approximately eight and a half hours. Flights depart Toronto at 10:35 p.m. and arrive in Helsinki the next day at 1:45 p.m., local time. Return flights depart Helsinki at 5 p.m. and arrive in Toronto at 6:45 p.m., local time.

The Airbus A330 aircraft, with 229 seats in Economy Class and 42 in Business Class, replace narrow body single-class Boeing 757s previously in use on the route. Currently four of Finnair’s eight A330s feature seats in Business Class that convert to fully flat beds, with more scheduled for retrofit during 2014. All A330 aircraft feature a renewed, complimentary inflight entertainment experience in both cabin classes, including 72 movies and more than 150 television shows on demand. (http://www.finnair.com)
