The Finnish carrier will not operate flights to the Estonian city until at least May 31.

Finnish airline Finnair has announced the suspension of all flights to the Estonian city of Tartu for a month due to recorded interference with the global positioning system (GPS). This was reported by the air carrier’s press service on Monday, April 29.

It was noted that flights to the Estonian city will not take place until May 31, “to introduce an alternative approach solution to Tartu Airport that does not require a GPS signal.”

“GPS constraints, which are common in this region, affect the usability of this approach method and may therefore prevent the aircraft from approaching and landing,” explained Finnair.

Passengers who have already booked tickets for flights to Tartu up to and including May 31 will be notified of alternative flight options.

It is worth noting that Finnair is the only airline that operates international flights to Tarte.

We remind you that recently two Finnair planes flying from Helsinki to Tartu were forced to turn back due to GPS signal interference.

GPS navigation problems in Europe have been reported since the start of Russia’s all-out invasion of Ukraine, particularly around the Kaliningrad region. European states believe these are deliberate actions by the Kremlin.
