FINNAIR<\/strong> on Wednesday announced it is discontinuing both in-flight and pre-order retail sales on all of its flights this spring.<\/p>\n

The Finnish majority state-owned airline stated that the in-flight sales of retail products such as cosmetics and accessories will end on 28 February. Pre-orders, meanwhile, will continue to be fulfilled until 18 April.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\n
\u201cOn-board and pre-order shopping has become a less important service among our customers,\u201d explained<\/a> Valtteri Halve<\/strong>, the head of product offering at Finnair.<\/p>\n
Halve reminded that the airline announced almost three years ago its decision to discontinue in-flight sales on its flights within the EU. The decision was aimed at reducing the overall weight and consequently the fuel consumption of aircraft.<\/p>\n
\u201cNow it is time to take the next step,\u201d he added. \u201cFood and beverage sales on flights will continue, of course.\u201d<\/p>\n
Finnair yesterday began a clearance campaign that offers customers to purchase products on-board or pre-order items at discounted prices. Pre-orders are available to customers on all flights with a duration of over two hours, while in-flight shopping is available to customers on long-haul flights and flights to the Canary Islands, Dubai, Egypt, Iceland, Israel, Switzerland, Turkey and the United Kingdom.<\/p>\n
