An airline's new route to Mumbai will open up further links to the Indian city from the UK. Finnair flights from its base in Helsinki to the city on the Indian west coast will begin this weekend and have been specifically timed to allow easy connections with London Heathrow, Manchester, Edinburgh and Dublin.
