Kemi-Tornio Airport — Kemi / Tornio, Finland

Kemi-Tornio Airport (KEM) serves the neighboring towns of Kemi and Tornio in northern Finland, near the Swedish border and the northern end of the Gulf of Bothnia. KEM provides scheduled domestic flights to Helsinki, supporting a region historically tied to the pulp and paper industry as well as steel manufacturing. The airport also serves as an access point for Lapland-adjacent tourism, including winter activities and proximity to the Arctic Circle, though it is smaller in scale compared to more tourism-focused northern Finnish airports like Rovaniemi. Kemi is additionally known for the Kemi Gemstone Gallery and, in winter, the SnowCastle, adding a niche tourism draw to the area that KEM helps make accessible. As a joint airport for two towns straddling a regional border, KEM plays a shared civic role for both communities.
