Finnair has launched its fourth Airbus A330 this week, commencing flights from
Helsinki to
Delhi in
India.
The deployment of the new aircraft on commercial service also means that the airline will be able to launch additional flights to
Osaka in
Japan on July 6th.
Finnair is currently in the process of renewing its
long-haul fleet, with a total of five new Airbus A330s set to be delivered this year.
All of the planes are equipped with a new cabin design which the airline claims has a "lighter" feel.
In a statement on the new additions to its fleet, Finnair said: "These aircraft represent the latest in travel comfort, modern technology and first class fuel efficiency."
The airline announced recently that it will use the Airbus A330 to operate flights to the holiday hotspot of
Phuket in
Thailand from next winter.
From its base in Helsinki, Finnair also offers flights to long-haul destinations including
Mumbai,
Hong Kong and
Tokyo.
