Finnair

I have flown with Finn Air on a couple of occasions in economy class and have always really enjoyed the experience. First of all, airlines such as Qantas, should really take lessons from Finn Air's customer service. I've never had any real problems with them and the majority of the time, I get the impression that the air crew are not really putting on an act with their friendliness. They smile, are polite, and efficient and unlike Qantas, they bring you water when you request it. The seats are more comfortable than British Airways for sure, but with just about the same amount of leg room. Again unlike some other airlines, the pilot always seems to land a lot ...  Read the complete review

I'd never flown with Finnair before, but recently they've been strongly advertising their fares to Asia and they are actually cheaper most of the time than other airlines. The only disadvantage is that you have to stop off in Helsinki, but that's fine with me if the airline is decent and it saves me some money. My trip took me from Amsterdam to Seoul and back. The Airline ======= Finnair are Finland's main airline, based at Helsinki-Vantaa Airport. Founded in 1923 they are currently majority owned by the Finnish government. They are a member of the Oneworld alliance. Booking ====== With Finnair being a major scheduled airline you ...  Read the complete review

Finnair's business class in its new Airbuses in Europe is quite simply the worst I have ever experienced in the world. The brand new, razor thin, smaller than bus seats are exactly the same ones as in economy and are RUBBISH.

Now Business is only about a quart full as everyone who wants t sit for 4 hours in a modicum of comfort London-Helsinki knows to fly BA if the times work out. Avoid like the plague.

A few years of regular business class travel at the expense of the company i worked for, has left me with the unfortunate and expensive affliction of being unable to face the coach class experience for long haul trips. So for the last few years i have permitted myself the extravagance of one business class flight a year to long haul destinations. For the last two years these trips have been with Finnair. In 2004 i travelled London - Beijing via Helsinki and my return leg departed Bangkok and again was via Helsinki. At the end of last year i took a return flight to Bangkok. I had never flown Finnair before in either economy or business. The ...  Read the complete review

Last Wednesday I returned home from a short trip to Helsinki. We flew there, and naturally also back again, with the Finnair, the national carrier of Finland and around those is to be today in my review. 1. First of all...some general information As said, Finnair is the national carrier of Finland. 60% the Finnair belong also to the state. The home airport is the airport Helsinki Vantaa and the IATA code, which one finds before the flight number of each Finnair flight, reads AY. Official name of the Finnair is today Finnair Oyj. in former times, at present their establishment in the year 1923 was called it still aero O/Y, since 1953 carries it only ...  Read the complete review
