Finavia expects passenger numbers at its four Lapland airports to increase by five to ten percent and flight movements to grow by four to eight percent in the 2026/27 winter season.
The operator has advertised 120 seasonal positions at Rovaniemi, Kittilä, Ivalo and Kuusamo airports, receiving 460 applications – sixty percent more than in 2025 – and expects the number of employees at the four airports to more than double during the winter season. Finavia also completed a new roughly 4,000‑square‑metre parking area with 130 spaces at Rovaniemi airport, improved traffic flow for taxis, buses and private vehicles there, and renewed check‑in machines at Rovaniemi and Kittilä.
