Finavia is a Finnish airport company that enables smooth international flight connections through its national airport network. Finavia's network of airports consists of 20 airports across Finland. Of these airports, 19 serve primarily passenger transport, while two serve solely military and general aviation operations.
The Challenge
Finavia has invested strongly in growing its Asian operations. The results are starting to show in the number of Chinese customers, with a 50% increase taking place between 2014 and 2016. To stay on this growth track, Finavia has invested in increasing its cultural knowledge and developing the customer experience for Chinese travellers.
The Solution
To meet this need, Acolad organized a series of cultural training sessions for Finavia's people in 2016.
