Aviator Airport Alliance has signed a contract with Air France–KLM (AF/KL) covering nine airports across Sweden, Norway, Denmark, and Finland.

The renewed stations include Copenhagen Airport (CPH), Helsinki Airport (HEL), and Stavanger Airport (SVG), where Aviator has maintained a long-term partnership with AF/KL. In addition, Aviator will expand operations to six new stations: Bergen (BGO), Trondheim (TRD), Kristiansand (KRS), Ålesund (AES), Tromsø (TOS), and Stockholm Arlanda (ARN).
