北極海航路
In November 2012, "Fennica" and her sister ship became the first Finnish icebreakers to sail through the Northern Sea Route when the vessels returned to Finland for the 2012 icebreaking season. During the transit, the multipurpose icebreakers were escorted by Russian nuclear-powered icebreakers "Rossiya" and "Vaygach". In 2013, "Fennica" and "Nordica" returned to Finland via the Northern Sea Route for the second time.
