  • Revenue increased by 7.9% to EUR 870.3

million

  • Record summer: over 4 million passengers, at

maximum 104 weekly flights to Asia

  • Market shares in Asia and Europe increased
  • Strong performance in European traffic
  • Demand from Japan to Europe at good level;

demand from Europe to Asia, especially Hong Kong, declined

  • Global operating environment in cargo weak as

expected

  • Travel services revenue and number of

passengers developed well

NPS = Net Promoter Score *New Customer satisfaction survey was launched in beginning of January 2019. In the new survey NPS is calculated based on responses from all customers starting from beginning of 2019, including Finnair Plus and non-members. In 2018, NPS was calculated based on responses from Finnair Plus members only and therefore these results are not comparable. In Q3 2018, NPS was 49. **Finnair carried in total of 4.1 million passengers in Q3/2019 and 3.7 million passenger in Q3/2018.

  • Our European traffic performed strongly and new

North American routes have been well-received. In selected Asian routes, most notably Hong Kong, lower demand was experienced.

  • Ancillary sales grew slightly faster than passenger

revenues.

  • Cargo revenue was impacted by weaker demand

across the industry.

  • The demand for travel services picked up after a

challenging first half of the year, signalling more positive development for the rest of the year.

Q3 revenue growth was driven by strong performance in Europe

  • Traffic from Asia to Europe remained at good level, whereas

demand from Europe to Asia was softer. In selected Asian routes, most notably Hong Kong, lower demand was experienced.

  • North American capacity growth is also reflected in passenger

revenue.

Outlook and guidance

Global airline traffic is expected to continue growing in the latter half of

  • 2019. However, the operating environment is expected to

remain volatile also in the second half of the year. The slowdown in the economies of Finnair’s key markets and the continued uncertainties surrounding global trade, including the US-China trade talks and Brexit, could impact the demand for air travel and for cargo. Finnair raises its capacity forecast for 2019 owing mainly to its new service to Beijing Daxing International Airport. Finnair estimates that capacity growth in 2019 will be between 11-12 per

  • cent. Revenue is expected to grow at a somewhat slower pace than

capacity in 2019. While the current outlook for Finnair’s seasonally strongest third quarter remains robust, we have started to see increased uncertainty especially in cargo demand. Finnair estimates that its comparable

  • perating result will be between 4.5-6.0% of revenue in

2019, assuming no material changes in fuel prices and exchange rates.
