Finland's flag carrier Finnair on Friday said it will connect Helsinki with India's financial capital Mumbai with a direct flight, starting July this year. Mumbai will be the airline's second destination in India after Delhi, where it has been flying since 2006. The to-be launched flight on Mumbai-Helsinki and vice versa will be open for bookings from April 5 onward, Finnair said in a statement.
An Indian Air Force cargo of aircraft equipment to Moscow has been confiscated at the Helsinki airport by Finnish Customs after it was found without valid papers.
