This September, Finland's main postal service - Posti - will issue a postage stamp celebrating the 100th anniversary of the country's national airline - Finnair.
Founded in 1923, Finnair is one of the oldest operating airlines in the world. Today, it boasts a network with extensive flight connections to Europe, North America and Asia.
Throughout its history, Finnair has served as a gateway to the world for Finns. Posti has played an important role in Finnair’s history, as Finnair’s first flight transported mail from Helsinki to Tallinn - the capital of Estonia. The 100th anniversary stamp, designed by Ilkka Kärkkäinen, features “beautiful movement and the familiar blue and white world of Finnair”.
Also in celebration of its 100th anniversary in November, Finnair has adorned two of its widebody Airbus A350 aircraft with the Moomin characters for rest of the year. The Moomin aircraft will fly to various long-haul destinations within Finnair's network, including Dallas, Tokyo, and Bangkok.
