From November 30, 2024, Lufthansa started to fly twice a week from Frankfurt to Rovaniemi, the capital of Lapland in northern Finland, for the first time. Rovaniemi is located on the Arctic Circle and is surrounded by untouched nature and not far away from the famous Santa Claus Village. The covers below record both the flight from Frankfurt to Rovaniemi and the flight back.
1. Lufthansa LH 852 Frankfurt a.M. -> Rovaniemi (with an arrival postmark of Napaiiri, which is a district of Rovaniemi). To note, the flight was not done with an Airbus A319 as planned, instead with an Airbus A321, as indicated by the cachet on the top left.
