BA passengers travelling to Helsinki will have the option of travelling onwards to Oslo in Norway and Gothenburg in Sweden on Finnair services. These, in addition, connect with flights to Billund and Aarhus in Denmark which are operated by British Airways franchise Partner Sunair.

Additionally, passengers travelling with Finnair from Stockholm to Manchester will be able to travel onwards with British Airways to Edinburgh and Glasgow.
