EFRO - Rovaniemi

Rovaniemi Airport holds the record of being the third busiest airport in Finland and the official airport of Santa Claus 🎅🏻. It is situated just 10 kilometers north of Rovaniemi city center and about 8 kilometers from Santa Claus Village at the Arctic Circle, making it a famous destination, especially during the holiday season.

Managed by Finavia, the airport serves as a crucial link between Lapland and the rest of the world, handling both domestic and international flights. The airport saw over half a million passengers in 2019, indicating its significant role in Finland's air transport.

Rovaniemi Airport's location presents unique challenges and opportunities in air traffic control due to its proximity to the Arctic Circle. It handles a diverse array of air traffic, including commercial, general aviation, private, and seasonal charter flights as well as medical helicopter service. It is equipped with a single runway, yet it efficiently manages the volume of air traffic.
