Challenges such as climate impact, airspace congestion, and economic viability remain areas of focus for policymakers and industry stakeholders. Finland also participates in regional initiatives, such as the Nordic aviation cooperation, to enhance connectivity and efficiency across the Baltic Sea region.

For professionals and enthusiasts, civil aviation in Finland offers diverse career opportunities in piloting, air traffic control, maintenance, and aviation management. The sector continues to adapt to global trends, balancing growth with environmental responsibility to ensure a resilient and accessible air transport system.
