Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA) welcomed its latest new international service on Wednesday (Jun 1) with Finnair’s inaugural service from Seattle to Helsinki. The flight’s shorter polar routing provides easy access to the Nordic countries as well as efficient connections to destinations throughout Europe and beyond. In Seattle, passengers can connect to the extensive network offered by Finnair’s Oneworld partner, Alaska Airlines.
“We’re proud of the resilience of the Seattle market,” said Lance Lyttle, SEA Airport Managing Director. “Finnair’s Helsinki service is SEA’s eighth new international service to launch since the start of the pandemic, and we’re excited to be able to welcome them into our brand new International Arrivals Facility.”
With Alaska Airlines’ entry into the Oneworld alliance in 2021, Alaska Mileage Plan members will be able to earn and redeem frequent flier miles on Finnair’s entire network.
Flight Details
The new flight operates three times per week – Monday, Wednesday, and Friday using an Airbus A330 aircraft.
