Finland airport strike ends, Finnair returns to normal schedule

Finnish airport strikes have ended after the Service Sector Employers Palta and the Finnish Aviation Union (IAU) reached a deal on July 13, 2025. 

The proposed strikes running on select days through July 25 have been cancelled. As a result, Finnair has reinstated its schedule and will operate its flights as normal. 

The airline, which has been impacted by the strikes with several days of cancellations, thanked its customers during the “prolonged labour dispute”. 

“With the negotiation result covering Finnair's technical services, kitchen, airport customer services, and many other companies operating in the airport area, we can now focus on operating our flights during this important summer travel season with the reliability customers expect from us,” said Finnair chief operating officer Jaako Schildt. 

The new agreement will be in effect for 1.5 years, ending January 15, 2027.
