Starting in mid-June 2027, Discover Airlines will offer the only direct flight from Frankfurt to Savonlinna every Saturday evening as a night flight. The city is located on Finland’s largest lake and is ideal for those seeking relaxation and outdoor enthusiasts. In the summer, visitors can also experience the unique atmosphere of the “white nights”: Around midsummer, the sun barely sets—or not at all—so travelers can still enjoy daylight even if they arrive at night.
Starting in December 2027, the seasonal service to Savonlinna will be replaced by a weekly winter service to Kajaani. The flight from Frankfurt departs every Friday. In winter, the city offers numerous outdoor activities, the Northern Lights, and experiences made possible only by the Finnish lake landscape—such as floating saunas.
Flights to Savonlinna can already be booked. Tickets for flights to Kajaani will be available starting in December 2026. With these new routes, Discover Airlines will offer even more options for travel to the Nordic countries. In total, travelers will have access to 8 destinations in Iceland, Norway, and Finnish Lapland, as well as approximately 20 weekly flights from Frankfurt and Munich.
