TUI Fly Launches Direct Flights to Finland
Pack your thermals, dust off your skis, and get ready to embrace the kind of winter magic that makes Instagram influencers weep with joy. Starting January 17, 2025, TUI fly Netherlands is launching direct flights from Amsterdam to Kuusamo, Finland, with a quick pit stop in Kajaani. This icy adventure runs until March 14, giving you a solid two months to trade Dutch drizzle for snow-covered landscapes and enough saunas to steam-clean your soul.

Where Are You Going, Exactly?
Let’s set the scene: Ruka-Kuusamo is basically winter’s greatest hits album. Think pristine ski slopes, cozy log cabins, and—if you’re lucky—the northern lights dancing above like nature’s own disco. Whether you’re shredding down the slopes or lounging in a sauna wondering if you can ever feel this zen again, Kuusamo has something for everyone.
And let’s not forget Kajaani, where you’ll touch down briefly before continuing on to Kuusamo. It’s Finland’s little secret—quiet, charming, and the perfect appetizer to your winter wonderland feast.
Who’s Coming Along?
TUI expects over 700 travelers to hop aboard this frosty flight route. Seats are being evenly split between Kajaani and Kuusamo—for now. But if one destination starts trending harder than the other (looking at you, northern lights chasers), they’ll adjust accordingly. Democracy in travel seating? We love to see it.
Why This is Kind of a Big Deal
Janne-Juhani Haarma, head honcho at the Ruka-Kuusamo Tourist Association, couldn’t be happier about these flights. He’s basically said, “More planes, more people, more fun.” And honestly, who can blame him? Better flight connections mean more visitors to marvel at Finland’s jaw-dropping winter scenery, sip hot cocoa in the snow, and maybe even pet a reindeer or two.
For TUI, it’s a win-win. They’re giving Dutch travelers an easy escape to a place where winter doesn’t mean soggy bike commutes but actual snow—like the kind you see in movies and wish for every Christmas.
What’s the Catch?
The only downside here? You’ll need to leave the Netherlands’ mild winter weather behind (and by “mild,” we mean perpetually wet and gray). But with Kuusamo offering snow you can actually play in and skies that glow in neon green streaks, it’s a trade-off we think you’ll survive.

So, grab your scarves, your skis, and maybe a Finnish phrasebook (though “hot sauna” is probably universally understood). TUI fly Netherlands is ready to take you to a winter escape so magical, you might just forget how much you hate defrosting your car back home.
