Northern lights and Santa Claus are calling pilots for a journey to the Finnish Lapland. Fly & See Santa is the biggest annual Christmas event in VATSIM skies and is held at three airports in Northern part of Finland. Snowy sceneries and slippery runways are open during the event at Rovaniemi, Kittilä and Ivalo. All of them are famous for beautiful nature, fresh air and almost total silence. During December these airports are popular charter destinations for almost 500 flights from all over Europe.

AIRPORTS:
Rovaniemi EFRO
Kittilä EFKT
Ivalo EFIV

TIMETABLE:
Saturday 13.12.2008, 1800 - 0000 UTC
Arriving traffic is accepted for Rovaniemi, Kittila and Ivalo. If you wish to have a shorter flight you can depart from Helsinki-Vantaa EFHK airport.
Sunday 14.12.2008, 1600 - 2000 UTC
Departing traffic from Rovaniemi, Kittila and Ivalo.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFO:
In recent years we have had heavy traffic flows and we encourage pilots to carry extra fuel due to possible holdings. In some cases Rovaniemi flights might have to divert to Kittilä or Ivalo.
