 | Leisure traffic demand has contracted since September 2001. Finnair has reduced its leisure flight capacity to correspond with demand, for example by more than ten per cent in winter 2001-02. Although capacity was increased towards the end of 2002, it has not, however, recovered to its year 2000 level. The capacity reduction in leisure traffic for the whole of 2001 was a good eight per cent.
Aurinkomatkat - Suntours
Aurinkomatkat has increased its market share in a declining package tour market. Total demand for package tours in Finland fell by 6.5 per cent compared to the previous year. Even so, Aurinkomatkat's turnover grew by 5.6 per cent.
In 2002 the package tour sector experienced changes as our main competitors rearranged their brands. Finland's package tour market has consolidated around fewer brand names. Finnair centralized its own package tour services in Aurinkomatkat three years ago when it sold the Finnmatkat company.
