What does “Export as a Service” mean in practice? Accelerating export-driven growth is an important part of the task assigned to Fintraffic by the Ministry of Transport and Communications. What have we done to promote the export efforts of Finnish companies in practice? Let’s hear it from companies that are members of the export cluster coordinated by Fintraffic.

The objectives of Fintraffic’s Air Navigation Services for 2026 focus on legal compliance, digitalisation of aviation, and promoting staff well-being and competencies.

The NELSON project hosted its stakeholder conference International Cooperation and Digitalisation in Maritime on 25 November 2025. The event brought together a wide range of perspectives on maritime digitalisation—from international cooperation and port digitalisation to e-navigation, remote pilotage and the future skills needed in our evolving ecosystem.

Fintraffic's Air Navigation Services aims to continuously improve the flow and predictability of its services with customers in mind. For this reason, the customer satisfaction survey, which was carried out in a similar way for years, has undergone a complete overhaul this year.

Welcome to the first stakeholder seminar of the NELSON project! The event will take place on 25 November 2025 from 9:00 to 12:00 at Studio Uusikumpu (Vuoritontuntie 22, 02200 Espoo).

Fintraffic VTS is actively contributing to the developing of future of maritime services through the MaDaMe and ORMOBASS projects, co-funded by the EU’s Interreg Baltic Sea Region programme. After two years of development and testing, it is time to share our first results and discuss new services and opportunities together with maritime industry stakeholders.

Fintraffic’s Air Navigation Services’ Flight Planning Centre (FPC) was established 15 years ago. Its purpose was to centralise support for air navigation services nationally at a single location. The Flan Planning Centre is a unique entity in Finland, and there is no equivalent anywhere in Europe. To celebrate the FPC’s anniversary, we are taking a look at how centralised flight planning services have been built over the years up to today.

Amendments to the Aviation Act will enter into force on 1 September 2025, also affecting the permission process for obstacles to air navigation.

Demand for flight route services increased in 2024, even though air traffic in Finland recovered more slowly than in the rest of Europe. Air navigation services were provided for nearly 242,000 flights in area control and for over 153,000 take-offs and landings at Helsinki Airport. The number of overflights through Finnish airspace increased by more than 65,000 flights.

The Finnish aviation community is seeking shared solutions and coordinated measures to reduce unruly behaviour. In May, just before the busiest flight season, the community launches a joint campaign titled “Put yourself in flight mode”.
