After new service, Finnair to bring Santa to India

New Delhi: After launching its maiden air service from Helsinki to the Indian capital Tuesday, Finnair has drawn a major promotional campaign that will see Santa Claus, the real one from the Arctic Circle, arrive here Nov 9.
The Finnish airline announced that its new service - which started with a frequency of three flights a week - will be expanded by the summer of 2007 to either five times or even a daily service.
"We have the traffic rights for a daily service to New Delhi and a daily service to Mumbai. So we will expand our operations based on the response. We'll also be looking at adding Mumbai," said Henrik Arle, Finnair's deputy chief executive. "Chennai and Bangalore are also very much on our radar," Arle, who arrived from the Finnish capital Tuesday morning on Finnair's maiden air service to India, told IANS in an interview.
