Yoga is set to get a new home in Finland when a studio is opened at the airport of this capital of the Nordic country.

Finavia, the operator of Finland's airports and air navigation systems, has decided to open the studio based on passenger feeback on new services.

"At a yoga studio set to be opened at Helsinki-Vantaa Airport, passengers can limber up following their flights, either in guided sessions or independently," Good News Finland said.

Ville Haapasaari, vice-president of Finavia, said that the goal was to create genuine experiences and services for passengers, which would have a real impact on their travel experience.
