    Does Helsinki Airport still have Terminal 1 and Terminal 2?

    The single terminal at Helsinki Airport.

    Answered at: Checked at:

    Short answer

    Finavia says that in June 2022 Helsinki Airport moved to a single-terminal operating model, with all services under one roof, and that Terminal 1 and Terminal 2 are a thing of the past. The change was part of a development programme that began in 2013, cost over one billion euros and ended in autumn 2023. Finavia says the airport can now serve 30 million passengers a year. You may still see the old T1 and T2 names in older guides and signs.
