Finland's Finnair is to lease two 270-seat Airbus A340-300 wide-bodies to meet its growing long-haul traffic needs.
The aircraft will be acquired from International Lease Finance Corporation (ILFC) from late this year.
“We have recently announced an increase in Asian traffic and we need additional capacity. This decision will enable us to satisfy growth needs until we take delivery of the new-generation Airbus A350 aircraft,” said Mika Vehviläinen, Finnair’s president and ceo.
