The plan was linked to Finnair’s new strategy published on 7 September which targets to restore the airline’s profitability.
Due to "dramatic changes" in the carrier’s operating environment caused by the closure of Russian airspace, the company has cut 90 jobs in Finland and 57 jobs outside of the country.
Some employees will be offered a new role at Finnair and the personnel reductions will be implemented by the end of February 2023.
"Finnair employees are committed professionals, who in many ways have already had to stretch, first during the pandemic, and then because of the war started by Russia. I’m deeply sorry that we must take these difficult but necessary measures in our quest to restore our profitability," says Topi Manner, Finnair chief executive.
