Finnair Traffic Performance in February 2016

Finnair Plc.      Stock Exchange Release        8 March 2016 at 09:00 am EET

Number of passengers grew in all traffic areas, 13.2% year‐on‐year as a whole

In February, Finnair's overall capacity measured in Available Passenger
Kilometres grew by 8.4 per cent and traffic measured in Revenue Passenger
Kilometres grew by 8.7 per cent year‐on‐year. The leap year had a positive
growth contribution of approximately 3 per cent, as there was one more day in
February than in the comparison period. The passenger load factor rose by 0.2 %
points to 79.1 per cent

The capacity in Asian traffic increased in February by 7.9 per cent, while
traffic measured in Revenue Passenger Kilometres increased by 10.5 per cent
year‐on‐year. Meanwhile, capacity in American traffic increased by 5.3 per cent,
but traffic growth as measured in RPK was only 2.2 per cent.

The capacity in European traffic grew by 7.9 per cent on the back of increased
frequencies and new destinations, while traffic measured in Revenue Passenger
Kilometres grew by 5.1 per cent year‐on‐year. At the same time, the growth in
domestic traffic is mainly attributed to the inclusion of the routes previously
operated at Norra’s own commercial risk as Finnair’s purchased traffic.

In February, the cargo capacity in scheduled traffic measured in Available Tonne
Kilometres grew by 11.4 per cent, and Revenue Tonne Kilometres increased by 6.3
per cent year on year. The cargo load factor in scheduled traffic was 52.5 per
cent. In addition, Finnair’s total freight capacity includes two weekly
freighter flights between Helsinki and Brussels and two weekly freighter flights
shared with IAG between Helsinki and London, both operated by DHL.

In February, 81.6 per cent of all Finnair flights arrived on schedule (87.0).

Traffic statistics for March 2016 will be published on Friday, 8 April 2016.
