Finnair flying high with China's ongoing growth, development

You would think the hometown of Santa Claus would only be busy once a year - but it's humming all year round thanks to an influx of Chinese travelers.

Rovaniemi, located in Finland's Arctic Circle region, is getting an economic boost from Chinese visitors arriving from Helsinki on Finnair flights.

"People need a reason to travel. Finnair wants to be a part of that, making their flight more meaningful," Finnair President and CEO Pekka Vauramo told Xinhua News Agency in an interview.
