The operating environment is changing and the companies who succeed best will be those who react quickly to the new situation and are among the first to take advantage of it. Anticipation, constant vigilance and flexibility are the essential qualities that will guarantee survival and future success. Although we face an unprecedented number of challenges, I believe, even so, that Finnair has the ability to fly into the future as a winner.

Under the circumstances, we have performed satisfactorily to date and our entire staff have shouldered their responsibilities in an exemplary manner, making the company more competitive than before. We have to continue our work to achieve a more cost-effective structure in order to safeguard our competitiveness and our earnings capacity.

In 2003 we celebrate notable anniversaries in aviation history. The Wright brothers made their first flight 100 years ago this year and 80 years have passed since the founding of Finnair. Much has happened in these years, and the passing of time has taught us many things. A financially strong Finnair with top quality services will certainly earn its place in the future, too.
