Through the agreement, JAL will be able to place its ‘JL’ code number from June 3, 2008 on non-stop international flights operated by Finnair between Helsinki and three cities in Japan: Nagoya, Osaka and Tokyo. Also included in the agreement are convenient intra-European connections flights operated by Finnair between Helsinki and the northern European cities of Copenhagen, Oslo and Stockholm.

One additional city- Oslo - will be added to JAL’s Europe network once the code share agreement comes into effect. As a result, JAL, including code shares, will connect Japan to a total of 25 cities in Europe on 37 routings.
