Finnair slightly revises guidance after strong Q3

Finnair has slightly revised its full-year guidance for 2023, expecting an operational profit of €150 to €200 million and revenues of between €2.9 and €3.1 billion. This compares to the July guidance of a net profit of €160 to €210 million and revenues of €3.098 billion. The update is mainly based on expected higher fuel costs during the final quarter, the airline said on October 24 in its Q3 earnings release.

Revenues totaled €817.3 million, up from €719.2 million. Net cash flow from operating activities was €95.5 million.
