In 1997, the subsidiaries '''Kar-Air''' and '''Finnaviation''' became wholly owned by Finnair and were integrated into the mainline operations. On 25 September 1997, the company's official name was changed to Finnair [[Oyj]].

In 1999, Finnair joined the [[Oneworld]] airline alliance. In 2001, Finnair reused the name "Aero" when establishing [[Aero Airlines]], a subsidiary airline based in [[Tallinn]], [[Estonia]].

In 2003, Finnair acquired ownership of the [[Sweden|Swedish]] [[Low-cost carrier|low-cost airline]], [[FlyNordic]], which operated mainly within [[Scandinavia]]. In 2007, Finnair sold all its shares in FlyNordic to [[Norwegian Air Shuttle]]. As part of the transaction, Finnair acquired 4.8% of the latter company, becoming its third largest shareholder. Finnair later sold their shares in 2013.<ref>{{cite web|author= Victoria Moores |url=https://aviationweek.com/air-transport/airlines-lessors/finnair-sells-its-stake-norwegian-air-shuttle-eu53-million |title=Finnair sells its stake in Norwegian Air Shuttle for â'Ź53 million &#124; Data & Financials content from |publisher=ATWOnline |date=2013-04-23 |access-date=2017-02-18}}</ref>
