In this interim statement, figures for 2008 are presented in brackets after the 
figures for the current year.                                                   

President and CEO Jukka Hienonen on the interim result:                         

Our sector is facing its deepest crisis. Finnair, too, has suffered from the    
fall of average prices caused by the decline in air travel. Turnover has been   
undermined by reduced demand and weaker price levels.                           

The present financial performance is corroding Finnair's capital adequacy. We   
have secured various sources of financing to ensure that our cash position is   
not endangered amid the large investments underway. Even so we have to embark on
more radical measures to restore our profitability.                             

In recent years, we have energetically pursued efficiency targets in order to   
adjust our operating costs to lower revenues. In an airline the proportion of   
total costs accounted for by fixed costs is generally high. In connection with  
the substantial decline in turnover, however, we have seen that many            
inflexibilities also hinder the adjustment of variable costs.                   

Achieving flexibility in the labour cost has proved to be difficult. The reason 
lies in the working conditions agreed in the good times, whose realignment to   
the present situation simply seems impossible.                                  

We have assiduously engaged in a dialogue with all seven personnel organisations
in recent years. Often the negotiating atmosphere has been constructive.        
Regrettably few good discussions, however, have materialised into agreements by 
which we could safeguard the company's profitability and at the same time       
preserve jobs. Redundancies or temporary lay-offs have remained our only        
options.                                                                        

One excellent exception is, though, a stabilization agreement in Finnair        
Technical Services. All five personnel unions and Finnair have agreed upon      
temporary flexible arrangements. The agreement includes an extra bonus system in
case the profitability improves.                                                
Because, moreover, it has not been possible, despite several attempts, to       
achieve flexibility agreements in other units, we are initiating new statutory  
employer-employee negotiations (YT negotiations) with the entire workforce to   
achieve the savings targets announced earlier.                                  

The aircraft investments planned for this year will be implemented, but the aim 
is to relax the timetable for aircraft acquisitions in the coming years.        

The positive signals are few, but remarkably improved on-time performance and   
excellent results in customer surveys are worth to mention.                     

Difficult times lie ahead. However, because of a clearly defined strategy and a 
strong cash and financial situation, the company's opportunities to recover from
a difficult period are better than average, but it requires a full              
implementation of the efficiency programmes and a change in the organisational  
culture.                                                                        

Market and General Review                                                       

The airline sector has suffered a historically strong recession, which deepened 
as the first half of the year progressed. The trend in airlines' profitability  
has been rapidly downward. The decline in average revenues has resulted from an 
exceptionally strong reduction in business travel as well as a fall in the price
level of tickets caused by overcapacity in the market.                          

The Finnair Group's turnover fell by more than 20 per cent. The decline took    
place above all in Scheduled Passenger Traffic, where revenue passenger         
kilometres have fallen by seven per cent in the early part of the year. Due to  
capacity cuts, passenger load factor has risen, however, by a couple of         
percentage points.                                                              

The fall in absolute scheduled traffic revenues and average prices, together    
with a too slow reduction in costs, have led to a sharp decline in profitability
compared with the previous year. Corporate travel on Finnair flights has fallen 
by more than 30 per cent. To some extent, business travel demand has shifted to 
cheaper price classes. Price campaigns have increased demand for other types of 
travel need.                                                                    

Leisure Traffic profitability has remained at a good level, despite a weakening 
of demand and a decline in turnover. Leisure flight capacity and package tour   
supply have been correspondingly adjusted to demand.                            

Finnair's cargo traffic has declined by more than 20 per cent in the early part 
of the year in line with the overall trend in the sector. In the summer months, 
the fall in volume has stabilised at a lower level. Pressure on price levels    
continues due to overcapacity in the market. Finnair's cargo companies have     
adjusted their personnel and costs according to the volume of cargo and mail    
handled.                                                                        

The Finnair Group's negative operational cash flow and investment programme have
weakened the company's capital structure. Compared with the sector, however,    
Finnair's gearing remains moderate and solidity is strong. There are a number of
sources of finance in the market, but an effort will be made to lighten the     
level of investment in 2010. To release capital, the sale and leaseback of      
certain properties in Finnair's ownership is under preparation.                 

In response to rapidly weakened profitability, Finnair has initiated during the 
last 15 months efficiency programmes totalling 200 million euros to improve     
profitability. In the programmes, around 120 million euros of targeted savings  
are directed at personnel costs. Instead of simple personnel cuts, the objective
is to find flexibility factors by which the unit price of work performance could
be reduced.                                                                     

As part of the efficiency programme and operational development, in the early   
autumn Finnair will implement an organisational change which will remove        
overlapping functions and make production planning and implementation more      
efficient. In addition, the change aims to achieve synergy benefits between     
different units.                                                                

The modernisation of the long-haul fleet has proceeded according to the plan in 
terms of the acquisition of new aircraft. Four new Airbus A330 wide-bodied      
aircraft joined the Finnair fleet during the first half of the year and the     
fifth new aircraft of the current year will arrive in November.                 

Financial Result, 1 April - 30 June 2009                                        

Turnover fell in the second quarter by 21.6 per cent to 427.4 million euros     
(545.2 million). The Group's operational result, i.e. EBIT excluding capital    
gains, non-recurring items and changes in the fair value of derivatives was a   
loss of 56.9 million euros (4.6 million profit). Adjusted operating profit      
margin was -13.3 per cent(+0.8). The result before taxes was a loss of 35.3     
million euros (18.5 million profit)                                             

A 24.2 million euro (12.6 million) item improving the second quarter result has 
been recognised for changes in the fair value of derivatives. Changes in the    
fair value of derivatives have no effect on cash flow.                          

In April-June, Finnair's passenger traffic capacity was cut by 11.7 per cent and
revenue passenger kilometres declined by 8.5 per cent. In Asian traffic, revenue
passenger kilometres fell by 10.8 per cent and Leisure Traffic performance by   
5.9 per cent. Passenger load factor for all traffic rose by 2.5 percentage      
points from the previous year to 71.9 per cent. The amount of cargo carried fell
by 24.0 per cent.                                                               

In scheduled passenger and leisure traffic, total unit revenues per passenger   
kilometre fell by 15.9 per cent. Yield per passenger fell by 17.2 per cent. Unit
revenues per tonne kilometre for cargo traffic declined by 33.1 per cent.       
Weighted unit revenues for passenger and cargo traffic fell by 14.9 per cent.   

Euro-denominated operating costs fell during the period by 13.0 per cent as     
turnover contracted by 21.6 per cent, which weakened operational profitability  
significantly. Unit costs of flight operations rose by 2.8 per cent. The impact 
of initiated cost-cutting programmes on the second quarter result was more than 
20 million euros.                                                               

Fuel costs fell in the second quarter by 18.2 per cent from April-June the      
previous year, partly due to a fall in the price of fuel, partly to reduced fuel
consumption. Fuel costs per tonne kilometre flown towards fell by 5.4 per cent. 
In the comparison, realised gains and losses on fuel derivatives and foreign    
exchange have also been recognised as fuel costs. Fleet materials and overhauls 
-item includes delivery maintenances of Boeing MD-11.                           

The significant  decline in traffic charges as well as in ground handling and   
catering expenses is due mainly to capacity cuts. The more than 18 per cent fall
in sales and marketing expenses resulted mainly from reduced payment of sales   
commissions, which in turn was a consequence of lower travel agency and         
codeshare sales.                                                                

The new Airbus 330 aircraft were purchased, which caused a growth in            
depreciations.                                                                  

Financial Result, 1 January - 30 June 2009                                      

Turnover fell in January-June by 15.7 per cent and was 943.1 million            
euros(1.118.1 million). The Group's operational result, i.e. EBIT excluding     
capital gains, changes in the fair value of derivatives and non-recurring items,
declined to a loss of 104.4 million euros (12.4 million profit). Adjusted       
operating profit margin was -11.1 per cent (+1.1). The result before taxes was a
loss of 60.3 million euros (22.8 million profit). Changes in the fair value of  
derivatives had a 47.6 million euro (12.5 million) improvement effect on the    
result reported for the first six months of the year.                           

In January-June, Finnair's passenger traffic capacity has been cut by 6.3 per   
cent and revenue passenger kilometres fell by 4.0 per cent. Asian traffic       
declined by 7.0 per cent. Passenger load factor rose 1.8 percentage points from 
the previous year to 74.1 per cent. The amount of cargo carried fell by 21.9 per
cent.                                                                           

In Group passenger traffic, total unit revenues per passenger kilometre fell by 
13.6 per cent. Yield per passenger fell by 12.1 per cent. Unit revenues per     
tonne kilometre for cargo traffic declined by 25.9 per cent. Weighted unit      
revenues for passenger and cargo traffic fell by 12.1 per cent.                 

Euro-denominated operating costs decreased during the period by 8.6 per cent as 
turnover contracted by 15.7 per cent. Unit costs per tonne kilometre for flight 
operations increased by 1.6 per cent. ‘Other lease payments' were more than 27  
per cent higher than a year earlier, mainly due to an Air European Airbus A330  
aircraft, leased to Leisure Flights in the first quarter.                       

Net cash flow from operations fell from last year's +86.5 million euros to      
-114.8 million euros. In addition to the operating loss, the cash flow weakening
is explained by a decline in trade payables, which stems from, among other      
things, a reduction in fuel purchases. The impact of the change in net working  
capital on cash flow was more positive in the second quarter than in the first  
quarter of the year, but below expectations. Bookings of flight tickets paid in 
advance were lower than expected.                                               

Earnings per share for January-June amounted to -0.35 euros (0.15).             

Investment, Financing and Risk Management                                       

Balance sheet cash and cash equivalents at the end of June totalled 266.0       
million euros (437.1 million). A long-term pension fund loan amounting to 85    
million euros was raised during the second quarter.                             

Gearing at the end of June was 43.2 per cent (-15.7). Gearing adjusted for      
leasing liabilities was 117.1 per cent (39.6). The equity ratio was 34.9%       
(45.7). Finnair's solidity is good within industry comparison.                  

Agreed, but to date unused, revolving credit facilities total 200 million euros.
In addition to this, Finnair has a 250 million euro credit facility from the    
European Investment Bank and an option of a loan-back of employment pension fund
reserves from llmarinen Mutual Pension Insurance Company amounting to around 350
million euros, both of which require a bank guarantee.                          

In terms of 2010, the aim is to reduce the level of investment from an original 
300 million euros by, among others, relaxing the acquisition schedule for new   
wide-bodied aircraft.                                                           

For its Airbus A330 wide-bodied aircraft, Finnair is negotiating for funding    
from the export credit agencies of Airbus owner states. The funding has being   
offered to purchasers of Airbus aircraft.                                       

In the second quarter, investments totalled 199.3 million euros (80.4 million), 
including three Airbus A330-aircraft. Including advance payments, the cash-flow 
impact of fleet and auxiliary investments was around 305 million euros in       
January-June and the estimate for the full year is over 400 million euros.      

To release capital, Finnair is negotiating the sale and leaseback of certain    
properties located in the area of Helsinki-Vantaa Airport. Financial flexibility
is also achieved through a 200 million euro short-term commercial paper         
programme, of which                                                             
105 million euros was in use at the end of the period.                          

According to the financial risk management policy approved by Finnair's Board of
Directors, the company has hedged 71 per cent of scheduled traffic's jet fuel   
purchases during the next six months and thereafter for the following 24 months 
with a decreasing level of hedging. Finnair Leisure Flights price-hedges fuel   
consumption according to its agreed traffic programme within the framework of   
the hedging policy. Derivatives linked to jet fuel and gasoil prices are mainly 
used as the fuel price hedging instruments.                                     

Fair value change of derivatives that mature in future is quarterly recognised  
in the Finnair income statement. The change is a valuation loss reported in     
accordance with IFRS reporting practice. It is not realised and has no effect on
cash flow. The item is excluded from the operational result. In January-June,   
the change in the fair value of derivatives improved the result by 47.6 million 
euros.                                                                          

The operational result for January-June includes realised losses on derivatives 
of 91.0 million euros, which appear in the fuel item of the income statement. In
the second quarter, losses were 40.8 million euros. The figure includes both    
foreign exchange and fuel derivatives.                                          

Shareholders' equity includes, as a variable item, the hedging reserve, whose   
value is directly affected by oil price and foreign exchange rate changes. The  
size of the item on the closing date was -62 million euros, which includes      
foreign exchange and fuel derivatives as well as, to lesser degree, other       
financial items less deferred taxes.                                            

Thanks to the currency hedging policy, the strengthening of the US dollar in    
relation to the euro compared with the previous year did not significantly      
influence Finnair's second quarter operational result. At the end of June, the  
degree of hedging for a dollar basket over the next 12 months was 66 per cent.  

Shares and Share Capital                                                        

Finnair's market value at the end of June on the NASDAQ OMX Helsinki Stock      
Exchange was 481.8 million euros (594.6 million) and the closing price 3.76     
euros. During the period January-June, the highest price for the Finnair Plc    
share was 5.24 (8.49) euros, while the lowest price was 3.52 (4.61) euros and   
the average price 4.36 (6.83) euros. Some 6.8 million (43.2 million) of the     
company's shares, with a value of 29.8 million (295.4 million), were traded.    

The total number of Finnair shares at the end of June was 128,136,115. The      
Finnish State owned 55.8 per cent (55.8) of Finnair's shares, while 18.3 per    
cent (16.6) were held by foreign investors or in the name of a nominee.         

On 30 June 2009, Finnair held 387,429 of its own shares (treasury shares),      
representing 0.3 per cent of the total number of the company's shares.          

President and CEO                                                               

President and CEO Jukka Hienonen has announced his resignation for personal     
reasons on 6 August 2009. Hienonen will leave the company at the end of his     
notice period of six months.                                                    


Organisational change                                                           

As part of its operational efficiency programme, Finnair is changing the Group  
structure starting from 1.10.2009. The aim of the planned organisational change 
is to centralise the Group's scheduled traffic and leisure operations into an   
integrated organisation and also to achieve closer cooperation between          
operations and Group Administration. In this way, overlapping functions will be 
removed in support operations.                                                  

The reorganisation of operations will clarify areas of responsibility and       
enhance efficient use of resources. Administrative support functions, such as   
ICT, HR and Business Control will be centralised in Group Administration.       
Resource Control and Strategic Business Planning will be part of the Group      
Administration.                                                                 

Personnel                                                                       

In the period January-June, the average number of employees employed by the     
Finnair Group amounted to 9,098 (9,573), which was five per cent less than a    
year earlier. Scheduled Passenger Traffic had 4,034 employees and Leisure       
Traffic 495 employees. The total number of personnel in technical, catering and 
ground handling services was 3,447 and in travel services 979. A total of 143   
people were employed in other functions.                                        

Finnair has collective employment agreements valid until spring 2010 with six   
personnel organisations. However, during early autumn 2009, negotiations will be
held with the unions representing ground handling workers, technical workers,   
engineers and managers, on a wage solution for the final year of the agreement. 
If these negotiations do not result in a mutual understanding, each agreement   
can be revoked to terminate 30.9.2009.                                          

The pilots' collective employment agreement expired at the end of November 2008 
and negotiations on a new agreement have been under way since the autumn last   
year. These negotiations continue. The most significant points of contention    
between the employer and the Finnish Airline Pilots' Association (SLL), which   
represents the pilots, relate to pension benefits, restrictions on business     
management decision-making and working time arrangements.                       

YT negotiations aimed at reducing personnel expenses also continued in the      
second quarter in different business units within Finnair. Altogether, Finnair  
Group personnel cost-cutting measures affect more than 6,000 employees in terms 
of temporary lay-offs. The duration of the lay-offs for the most part varies    
from two weeks to three months. Through workforce reduction measures, the number
of Finnair Group personnel had fallen by the end of June by nearly 500 employees
compared with the previous year.                                                

In collaboration with personnel organisations, Finnair management arranged a    
series of meetings in which alternatives to redundancies and temporary lay-offs 
were sought for savings in personnel costs. Finnair Technical Services was the  
only unit to achieve an understanding on stabilization agreement upon flexible  
arrangements to improve the work productivity. The stabilization agreement      
includes an extra bonus system that enables to return the saved-in amounts as   
the operating income of Finnair Technical Services improves. This agreement     
gives slightly around 14 million euros' share of savings of the 70 million      
euros' target.                                                                  

In other units, new YT negotiations to achieve the 15 per cent, namely 70       
million euro, targeted savings in personnel costs set earlier will take place   
during the late summer/early autumn. Personnel reductions resulting from the    
organisational change are also part of this programme.                          

The number of travel agency personnel has been reduced by 12 per cent from June 
last year, i.e. by 156 people. In addition, 4-9 week lay-offs of the entire     
workforce are underway.                                                         

Fleet Changes                                                                   

Finnair Group's fleet is managed by Finnair Aircraft Finance Oy, which belongs  
to the Scheduled Passenger Traffic business area. At the end of June, the       
Finnair Group had a total of 67 aircraft in flight operations. The average age  
of the Finnair's entire fleet is 6.3 years, and in European traffic around five 
years.                                                                          

Three new Airbus A330-300 aircraft joined Finnair's wide-bodied fleet in the    
second quarter. This year one more new Airbus A330-300 long-haul aircraft will  
be acquired. Finnair currently has a total of 12 long-haul aircraft. The Airbus 
aircraft will replace three Boeing MD-11 aircraft to be withdrawn from Finnair's
fleet by the end of March 2010. We aim at relaxing the fleet renewal schedule in
the years to come in order to protect the capital structure.                    

To protect the capital structure, Finnair aims to relax the fleet modernisation 
schedule. Orders of Embraer 190 aircraft planned for 2010-2011 will also be     
rescheduled. Finnair also intends to postpone an order for one Airbus A330      
aircraft scheduled for next year.                                               

The lease agreements of the Boeing 757 aircraft used by Finnair Leisure Flights 
are valid until 2010, after which they can if necessary be extended on current  
terms twice at two years at a time. Before a possible extension decision, the   
company will assess the most efficient way of managing its leisure flight       
commitments.                                                                    

Environment and Social Responsibility                                           

Finnair takes the environment into consideration in all of its actions and      
decisions.                                                                      

Finnair has been systematically modernising its fleet since 1999. The European  
and domestic traffic's Airbus A320 and Embraer aircraft represent the latest    
technology. A modern fleet loads the environment less in terms of carbon dioxide
and noise emissions. The modernisation of the long-haul fleet currently under   
way will influence the amount of emissions significantly. The Airbus A330       
reduces the fuel consumption and emissions index per passenger by around twenty 
per cent compared with the MD-11 aircraft.                                      

Last year the EU approved a model for the implementation of emissions trading in
air transport starting in 2012. The emissions trading calculation principles    
will take into account fuel consumption in relation to performance. Finnair will
strive as part of the community of European airlines to argue successfully that 
the system should be worldwide and not distort competition in the sector. In    
addition, Finnair became a member of the international Aviation Global Deal     
Group, which is proposing a model as the basis of a sector agreement in         
international emissions trading.                                                

Finnair is actively involved in environmental cooperation work with interest    
groups. A new emissions calculator as well as a social responsibility report was
published in May. In addition, Finnair has already been reporting on its        
environmental impact in the international Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP) for   
three years now.                                                                

Finnair's VP Sustainable Development Kati Ihamäki has been appointed to IATA's  
15-member Environmental Committee.                                              

Business Area Development in the Second Quarter                                 

The primary segment reporting of the Finnair Group's financial statements is    
based on business areas. The reporting business areas are Scheduled Passenger   
Traffic, Leisure Traffic, Aviation Services and Travel Services.                

Scheduled Traffic                                                               

This business area is responsible for scheduled passenger traffic and cargo     
sales, service concepts, flight operations and activity connected with the      
procurement and financing of aircraft. Scheduled Passenger Traffic leases to    
Leisure Traffic the crews and aircraft it requires. The business area consists  
of the following units and companies: Finnair Scheduled Passenger Traffic,      
Finnair Cargo Oy, Finnair Cargo Terminal Operations Oy and Finnair Aircraft     
Finance Oy.                                                                     

The business area's turnover fell in the second quarter by 24.9 per cent to     
329.0 million euros (438.0 million). The operational result was a loss of 55.9  
million euros (1.3 million profit).                                             

Scheduled Passenger Traffic carried more than 1.5 million passengers in         
April-June, representing a decline of ten per cent from the previous year.      
Scheduled Passenger Traffic revenue passenger kilometres fell from the previous 
year by nine per cent as capacity contracted by nearly 13 per cent, which       
improved the scheduled traffic passenger load factor by 2.5 percentage points to
70 per cent.                                                                    

In the second quarter, unit revenues for scheduled passenger traffic fell by    
18.2 per cent. The falling of Easter into different quarters in different years 
influences demand and average revenues to some extent, because business travel  
is lower at Easter and in the week before and after it. Easter falling in the   
second quarter of this year contributed to a weakening of unit revenues. The    
main reason for weak price development, however, was a general reduction in     
business travel.                                                                

The information of the spreading of the H1N1 virus caused a decline in the      
demand of flight traffic on a part of the Asian market.                         

Cargo revenues account for more than ten per cent of all Scheduled Traffic's    
revenues. The profitability of Finnair's cargo business has weakened quickly    
worldwide due to adverse global economic climate. In April-June, cargo unit     
revenues declined by 33.6 per cent. In scheduled traffic, the amount of cargo   
kilos carried fell by 24.0 per cent.                                            

On Finnair's route network, capacity cuts have been made by reducing the number 
of flights on European and Asian routes. On the other hand, European summer     
destinations have again been opened this summer, but with lower seating         
capacities. Finnair is flying to Tokyo and New York three additional times per  
week in the summer months. The Tokyo route is operated daily and New York ten   
times per week. In 2009 scheduled traffic capacity in passenger kilometres is,  
with the present traffic programme, nearly eight per cent lower than last year. 
The reduction of capacity has weakened the Finnair fleet's average daily        
utilisation rate, measured in flying hours, by around 15 per cent.              

During April-June, the arrival punctuality of scheduled passenger flights       
improved by 11.7 percentage points from the previous year to 89.5 per cent      
(77.8). Finnair's punctuality is one of the best among European airlines.       

Finnair's cargo companies, Finnair Cargo Oy and Finnair Cargo Terminal          
Operations Oy, have suffered from the economic downturn. Cargo demand has       
collapsed worldwide by more than 20 per cent. As a consequence of increased     
capacity, the price level has also fallen steeply.                              

Finnair's cargo companies have made major adjustments to their operations. The  
terminal company in particular has managed to reduce personnel resources to     
match falling cargo volumes. Profitability is undermined, however, the weak     
correspondence of unit costs with the downward trend in unit revenues.          

Leisure Traffic                                                                 

This business area consists of Finnair Leisure Flights plus the                 
Aurinkomatkat-Suntours package tour company and its subsidiaries, the Estonian  
tour operator Horizon Travel and the St. Petersburg Calypso travel agency, as   
well as the Finnish takeOFF brand, which focuses on youth travel.               
Aurinkomatkat-Suntours is Finland's largest tour operator, with a market share  
of more than 35 per cent. Finnair Leisure Flights enjoys strong market          
leadership in leisure travel flights and all of Finland's largest tour operators
are its customers. For their package tour production, tour operators buy the    
flight series they need to holiday destinations for the summer and winter       
seasons.                                                                        

Leisure Traffic's turnover fell in the second quarter by 6.4 per cent to 79.4   
million euros (84.8 million). The business area's operational profit was 2.9    
million euros(2.5 million loss).                                                

In the second quarter, Finnair Leisure Flights carried 257,500 passengers,      
around six per cent fewer than a year earlier. Performance calculated in        
passenger kilometres rose 5.9 per cent. Leisure Flights' passenger load factor  
was at the previous year's level, 81.8 per cent.                                

The economic recession and uncertainty are evident in consumer behaviour and in 
package tour sales. Trips are purchased closer to the travel date. Tour         
operators have to sell a larger proportion of their trips with last-minute      
discounts, which weakens the sector's profitability. Tour operators have cut    
their tour production for the current summer by around ten per cent from the    
previous year. In Estonia the package tour market has nearly halved. In Russia, 
Aurinkomatkat's sales are growing, even though demand for holiday trips has     
clearly fallen.                                                                 

Aurinkomatkat-Suntours and Finnair Leisure Flights prepared in advance for the  
weakening of demand by adjusting their summer season production significantly   
from the previous year's level. Leisure Flights was able to compensate for loss 
of revenue caused by a reduction in package tour volume by selling seats on     
holiday route flights, by in-flight sales, through temporary lay-offs of Finnair
personnel and as result of the lower price for jet fuel compared with the       
previous year.                                                                  

Sales of holiday trips for next winter season have started off at a clearly more
leisurely rate compared with the record demand of last winter. The tour         
operators' capacity cuts will weaken the efficient utilisation of Leisure       
Flights' fleet in the latter part of the year.                                  

Aviation Services                                                               

This business area comprises aircraft maintenance services, ground handling and 
the Group's catering operations. In addition, most of the Group's property      
holdings, the procurement of office services, and the management and maintenance
of properties related to the Group's operational activities also belong to the  
Aviation Services business area.                                                

Aviation Services' turnover fell in the second quarter by 8.9 per cent to 101.6 
million euros (111.5 million). The operational result weakened by 4.6 million   
euros and was a loss of 0.2 million euros (4.4 million).                        

The stabilisation agreement made in Finnair Technical Services improves the     
competitive strength of the unit as regards the costs, which enables the unit to
obtain new external clients.                                                    

Finnair Catering's business is profitable, even though turnover has fallen as   
passenger numbers have declined. The unit has implemented adjustment measures by
which labour has been dimensioned to the level of demand for meals.             

The turnover of ground handling services company Northport Oy has declined due  
to the lower number of flights. The level of fixed costs has raised unit costs. 

Travel Services                                                                 

The business area consists of the Group's travel agencies: Matkatoimisto Area,  
Finland Travel Bureau (FTP) and its subsidiary Estravel, which operates in the  
Baltic states, as well as Amadeus Finland Oy, which integrates travel agency    
systems and sells travel reservation systems.                                   

Aviation Services' turnover fell in the second quarter by 18.9 per cent to 16.7 
million euros (20.6 million). The operational result fell to a loss of 0.9      
million euros (1.4 million profit).                                             

Most of the Finnair travel agencies' sales comes from business travel. The      
exceptionally steep decline in business travel that began in the late autumn    
continued into the spring. Business travel is expected to fall by 20-30 per cent
from the previous year. Some large corporate customers have reduced their travel
by up to 70 per cent.                                                           

Aspects of the structural change in business travel are expected to remain      
permanent after the recession. The economic situation has also influenced to    
some extent the travel of private consumers. Trips are bought on the internet   
and price is the key factor in the purchasing decision.                         

Area, FTB and Estravel have adjusted their cost structure to the new market     
situation. Service locations have been cut, personnel reduced and development   
projects focused on developing electronic services as well as enhancing and     
automating processes. The savings will be evident as an improved financial      
performance in the latter part of the year.                                     

Area initiated cooperation with the S-Matkat.fi service, providing various      
travel services for S Group's customer-owners. In April, Finland's oldest travel
agency FTB celebrated the 100th anniversary of its founding. In the Baltic      
states, demand for travel services has contracted more sharply than in Finland. 

Air Traffic Services and Products                                               

In the summer season, Finnair has a total of 55 direct flights per week to nine 
Asian destinations. Finnair's Asian destinations are Bangkok, Delhi, Hong Kong, 
Nagoya, Osaka, Beijing, Shanghai, Seoul and Tokyo. The Mumbai route, which      
belongs to the route network, is not flown in the summer season.                

Flights covering 34 European and domestic destinations connect into Finnair's   
Asian network. At the same time, a wide selection of direct connections is      
offered from Finland to the rest of Europe.                                     

In the summer season Finnair also flies to Ljubljana, Krakow, Venice, Pisa and  
Bergen. Flights to Ljubljana began at the end of March, and to Krakow and Venice
at the beginning of April. The Pisa and Bergen routes started up in May.        

In June, Finnair and the Italian airline Meridiana began cooperation flights    
from Helsinki to Cagliari and Olbia in Sardinia, to Palermo in Sicily and from  
the Finnair destinations of Amsterdam, Rome and Paris to Florence.              

In long-haul traffic, Finnair flies to Tokyo in June-September daily instead of 
its normal four flights per week schedule, and to New York ten times per week.  

Finnair and its oneworld partner Cathay Pacific began cooperating between Hong  
Kong and Brisbane in Australia in May.                                          

Leisure Flights' fleet consists of seven Boeing 757 aircraft. In the summer     
season, Leisure Flights flies, in addition to charter flight traffic, certain   
holiday routes, including Boston and Toronto.                                   

In the coming winter season Finnair will use in its Leisure Traffic one of its  
five long-haul traffic Airbus A330-300 aircraft. The 271-seat wide-bodied       
aircraft will fly non-stop leisure flights from Helsinki to Phuket in Thailand  
four days a week from November to April. Last winter, an Airbus A330-200        
aircraft leased from outside the Group was used for the corresponding leisure   
flight series, six days a week.                                                 

In addition to leisure traffic, the Airbus A330-300 aircraft will also be used  
on Finnair's Asian route flights, as a result of which the aircraft has a       
42-seat business class section. On leisure flights, business class is called    
Comfort class, which offers, in addition to lie-flat seats, a more comprehensive
service than economy class.                                                     

Finnair has introduced the new-generation Altéa Departure Control System        
developed by Amadeus. The system enhances processes connected with passenger    
check-in, aircraft load planning control and gate service.                      

Short-term Risks and Uncertainty Factors                                        

Globally, the airline industry is one of the sectors most sensitive to cyclical 
changes in economic conditions. The development of gross domestic product and   
international trade strongly affect the development of air transport passenger  
and cargo demand. A weakening of domestic consumer confidence might also have an
adverse impact on demand for non-business travel in both leisure and scheduled  
traffic services.                                                               

The financial difficulties of customers will increase the bad debt risk in the  
future.  Due to the short booking horizon in passenger and cargo traffic, it is 
difficult to forecast demand far into the future.                               

A change of one percentage point in the load factor of scheduled passenger      
traffic services affects the Group's operating profit by around 15 million      
euros. A change of one per cent in the average yield of scheduled passenger     
traffic services also affects the Group's operating profit by around 15 million 
euros.                                                                          

The influenza caused by the H1N1-virus may cause a temporary decline in the     
flight traffic demand as well as increase the sick leaves of the personnel, thus
causing extra costs and a short-term lack of resources.                         

The tightening of the financial markets has raised the cost of planned financing
higher than was anticipated. The financial crisis will be reflected in the      
financing of Finnair's fleet modernisation primarily via the cost of borrowed   
capital and the price level of lease agreements.                                

The risk in the acquisition of new aircraft is that demand will fall more       
quickly than capacity can be meaningfully reduced. The lease agreements of      
Finnair Leisure Flights' seven Boeing 757 aircraft will expire in 2010, at which
time the size of the scheduled traffic and leisure flight fleets can be         
optimised according to demand forecasts.                                        

Fuel costs constitute around one fifth of the Group's costs and are one of the  
most significant uncertainty factors where costs are concerned. Foreign exchange
rate changes also represent a risk. Finnair provides against fuel price and     
foreign exchange rate volatility by entering into option and future contracts.  
The rising cost of hedging arrangements also poses a risk.                      

The hedging policy practised by Finnair dampens fuel price fluctuations.        
Finnair's more than 70 per cent hedging level over the next six months will slow
the transfer of the benefit of the fall in market price of jet fuel to the      
company's fuel costs. Hedging losses will be most evident in the first half of  
the year. Finnair's relative competitive position in terms of costs is also     
influenced by competitors' fuel price hedging policies. The company's main      
competitors adhere to the same principles as Finnair in their hedging policies. 
If the market price of fuel rises, Finnair's hedging losses will decline.       

Outlook                                                                         

Demand for flight travel and cargo is expected to have reached their lowest     
level and to recover gradually if the global economy recovers. The crisis in air
transport will continue as airlines encounter difficulties with their           
profitability, operational cash flow and financial position.                    

Finnair's scheduled traffic will also suffer from the market situation, but with
the aid of a strong cash and financial situation, the profitability improvement 
measures under way and its clearly defined strategy, the company's opportunities
to recover from a difficult period are better than average, even though an      
improvement of profitability will, though, require the full implementation of   
the efficiency programmes.                                                      

Finnair will maintain its Asian strategy. The long-term goal of scheduled       
passenger traffic is to grow in services between Europe and Asia, utilising     
Helsinki as a geographically and logistically ideal transit location.           

Our aim is to slow down the development of indebtedness by sale and leaseback   
agreements for certain properties as well as by relaxing the schedule for       
aircraft and building investments. Finnair is negotiating on debt and lease     
arrangements for more than 400 million euros.                                   

Finnair's fuel costs are expected to be slightly lower this year than last due  
to a fall in fuel prices and the improved fuel economy of aircraft. At the      
present price level and hedging policy, fuel costs are expected in 2009 to be   
around 24 per cent of Finnair's turnover, while the corresponding percentage    
last year was 24.6.                                                             

The development of demand for business travel can not be estimated reliably     
until in the autumn, based on the yearly seasonal fluctuation. Through the      
adjustment decisions that have now been made, Finnair's scheduled traffic       
capacity for the whole of 2009 will fall by more than eight per cent compared   
with 2008.                                                                      

Demand for package tours in the coming winter season is expected to be lower    
than last year.  To avoid a weakening of price level, Aurinkomatkat-Suntours has
adjusted its capacity, and Finnair Leisure Flights its flight programme, to     
correspond with weakened demand.                                                

Cargo demand is dependent on industrial investments and the durable consumer    
goods market. Only a change of sentiment in the global economy will enable cargo
demand to turn to growth. Similarly, a pick-up in business travel will require a
clear change in international economic conditions.                              

The Finnair Group has announced efficiency measures totalling around 200 million
euros, of which more than half are being implemented. Around 120 million euros  
of targeted savings are directed at personnel costs. Means to achieve 70 million
euros of savings in personnel expenses will include personnel reductions,       
temporary lay-offs, outsourcing of operations and flexibilities in working      
conditions to be possibly agreed with personnel organisations. So far, Finnair  
Technical Services is the only unit to have agreed upon major flexible          
arrangements.                                                                   

Finnair is aiming at turning Finnair Technical Services and flight training     
center into independent companies.                                              

Even though the second half of the year is expected to be stronger than the     
first, the operational results for the third quarter and the full year are      
expected to remain clearly loss-making.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED INTERIM REPORT                                        

1. BASIS OF PREPARATION                                                         

This consolidated interim report has been prepared according to the             
International (IAS) Standard 34: Interim Financial Reporting, which has been    
introduced in the EU.                                                           

2. ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES                                                        

The accounting principles adhered to in the interim report are consistent with  
the principles adhered to in the 2008 consolidated financial statements,        
excluding the changes listed below.                                             

The following new standards, changes to standards and the application of        
interpretations which are perceived to be essential for the Group have been     
introduced from the beginning of 2009:                                          
- IFRIC 13, Customer Loyalty Programmes'. The interpretation clarifies that     
where goods or services are sold together with a customer loyalty incentive, the
arrangement is a multiple-element arrangement and the consideration receivable  
from the customer is allocated between the components of the arrangement using  
fair values. The group operates loyalty programmes as defined by the            
interpretation (Finnair-Plus program) in the scheduled traffic segment. After   
the adoption of the interpretation the correspondence of deferred credits,      
equity and deferred taxes of the previous year reported balance sheet and       
turnover, marketing expenses and deferred credits of the previous year income   
and loss statement has been made.                                               

- IFRIC 13. The effect of Customer Loyalty Programmes to profit and loss        
statement and balance sheet of year 2008 have been reported in the interim      
report Q1/2009.                                                                 

- IAS 1 (Revised), ‘Presentation of Financial Statements'. The revised standard 
is aimed at improving users' ability to analyse and compare the information     
given in financial statements by separating changes in equity of an entity      
arising from transactions with owners from other changes in equity. Non-owner   
changed in equity will be presented in the statement of comprehensive income.   
The group has been reported the income statement and statement of comprehensive 
income and made the correspondence of the previous year income statement and    
statement of the comprehensive income according to the IAS 1 (Revised).         

- IFRS 8, ‘Operating Segments'. The new standard replaces IAS 14. The new       
standard requires a ‘management approach', under which segment information is   
presented on the same basis as that used for internal reporting purposes. The   
segments reported by the group will also in the future be the same as the       
business segments under IAS 14. The reported operating segments are the same as 
under IAS 14 business segments and they correspond the internal reporting.      

- Amendment to IAS 23, ‘Borrowing Costs'. The amended standard requires an      
entity to capitalise borrowing costs directly attributable to a qualifying asset
as part of the cost of that asset. The option of immediately expensing those    
borrowing costs will be removed. The group will commence capitalisation of      
borrowing cost related to such undertakings as well as projects to be accounted 
for under the stage of completion method embarked in 2009. Such Borrowing Costs 
are expected to be most in the Scheduled Traffic segment. So far, there have not
been the Borrowing Costs according to IAS 23 standard.                          

3. CRITICAL FINANCIAL STATEMENT ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS                       

The preparation of interim reports requires the company's management to make    
estimates and assumptions that influence the levels of reported assets and      
liabilities as well as of revenue and expenses. Realised results might differ   
from these estimates.                                                           

In connection with the preparation of this interim report, the significant      
estimates made by management relating to the consolidated accounting principles 
and the key uncertainty factors are the same as those applied in the 2008 annual
financial statements.                                                           

4. SEGMENT INFORMATION                                                          

The business segments, Scheduled Passenger,Traffic, Leisure Traffic, Aviation   
Services and Travel Services, are the primary reporting format. The geographical
segments, Finland, Europe, Asia, North America and Others, are the secondary    
reporting format. Segment information will based on the corresponding           
information reported in the financial statement.
