Haven't they only operated charter flights in the past couple of years? Although I'm not able to tell if this year it's going to be any different.

Yes, only charters so far. Once they announced it as a scheduled destination for summer (midnight wave) but canceled it before the start.

Don’t understand why Finnair does not fly to Kirkenes in Norway, the final stop of Hurtigruten in the north.

It seems that this summer's flights are charters as well now that I read the original source article in SeverPost

Yes, saw that too but strange not loaded into Amadeus yet...seems AY wants to sell these mainly via AM anyway..so might as well go with QR or CX as Finnair isn't interested, their J is miles beyond AY but direct flight has its benefits..

Check-in.dk reports this AY new LHR summer slot is leased from EY.

Finnair overtager et slot-par (start- og landingstilladelse, red.) fra Etihad Airways i London Heathrow med virkning fra sommertrafikprogrammet i 2020. Det mellemøstlige flyselskab med base i Abu Dhabi lejer et dagligt slotpar ud til Finnair.
