FINNAIR customer review :  17 November 2009 by Peter Lukassen   (Netherlands)

DUS-HEL-DUS an okay trip.Enough leg room for 2.5 hour. Service in terms of food and drinks was what you expect. Staff friendly. Special meals were provided. HEL-HKG-HEL good legroom and tickets were a bargain. For economy class there is enough leg room, even when the seat in front is reclined. LCD screen still visible too. Service was very good. I knew that wine and hard drinks were not for free, but I don't care for that, so no problem. During the flight the staff offered regularly drinks. Special food were provided. Going to Hong Kong the food was eatable. On the return however, the food was horrible.

Heathrow-Helsinki-Kansai, Economy class. I went with Finnair because they were the cheapest ticket, I wasn't expecting much but pleasantly surprised. Seats were a little uncomfortable and the food was absolutely vile, but everything else was fine.

Business class Frankfurt-Helsinki-Delhi-Helsinki-Frankfurt. Very good but not excellent. Long distances flights are great but short distances flights planes are not so good - uncomfortable. Good food to choose and variety of films to watch. British Airways are better.

AMS-HEL-VNO return flight. Online check-in both ways. Very cheap flight. Friendly crew and decent food.

Manchester to Hong Kong return Economy Class. Manchester to Helsinki on time, good meals, and attentive crew. Helsinki to Hong Kong with good food, pleasant crew, decent legroom and relative comfort for economy seating on A340. The entertainment offered only a limited amount of choice and there were no free snacks between meals. Hong Kong to Helsinki suffered a delayed arrival, but the flight to Manchester was held so the 16 connecting passengers and luggage all made the connection.

Helsinki-Moscow-Helsinki: uneventful, but easy flight in an Embraer plane, which is quite cramped, including the business class too. In tourist class the meal included a small bread roll and coffee or tea or other drinks. Friendly staff in the air and in Helsinki, normal unfriendly staff in the Sheremetyova airport (where you need to preserve a lot of time both ways).

HEL-MAD in Biz Class. Check-in done by SMS at home which was a good thing as queues even for bag drop at HEL airport were incredibly long. Only one C-class counter open and the sour lady did not say a word, only handed the baggage receipt without smiles. No fast track for premium passengers so waited 40 minutes in line for security. Lounge crowded and all tables filled with empty cups and plates from previous visitors. Boarding through a bus gate and five minutes to STD was still at the end of boarding queue. Flight further delayed due radar issues at the airport, not Finnair's fault, but information not forthcoming. First drink provided 1h45m after STD. Would have appreciated a glass of water (or champagne) during the wait. Seat 2C on A320, showing its age a bit, but ok legroom. No choice of meals, a bland chicken fillet in a droplet of unidentified sauce and undercooked root vegetables. Luckily champagne and wine freely available, even though had to go to the galley to ask for refill. No IFE apart from AirShow on drop-down screens. Frankly not that impressed. The ticket cost around 1K Euros and did not feel it was value for money. Best part was the cabin crew who were very senior, but polite and professional.

LHR-HEL-PVG Business Class. LHR-HEL flight OK but dull and very basic lounge in LHR. HEL-PVG, little personal attention from the crew, meal choice offered as it was served. Seat comfort okay - but wish Finnair more upfront about Lie-flat seat being angled. Terrible sleep - cabin lights could not be dimmed (technical fault) and crew spent whole night refurbishing stocks in the galley (I was in 6A right next to it), chatting, moving trolleys from rear galley etc. Made no effort to allow passengers any peace - even after I requested a bit of quiet! Ear plugs good as useless. Will avoid flying with them in the future - good price or not!

FINNAIR customer review :  8 October 2009 by O Houba   (Czech Republic)

Prague - Helsinki economy class. Online check a breeze. Lunch of good quality, 3 rounds with drinks through this 2 hour flight. Attendants helpful and polite. Return journey two days later and it was much the same. Would not hesitate to fly Finnair again.

Berlin to Osaka and back. Long haul flight with friendly, attentive service, good choice of food and drinks. Individual DVD players and DVDs were provided. Seats have a bit of an angle. Downside are the lounges in Helsinki - long haul ok, Schengen lounge overcrowded and bad standard.

FINNAIR customer review :  30 September 2009 by Mark Suva   (Estonia)

TLL-HEL-ICN return in business. I upgraded with points on cheap economy fare. Finnair was not able to organize business class check-in in TLL airport, and surprisingly long in the queue. In HEL after short hop, went into the lounge, where food and drink offerings have deteriorated since last year. Less food, less quality alcohol. Japan Airlines lounge in ICN is even worse. Food HEL-ICN and ICN-HEL legs was average. The stewardesses were not particularly friendly, while Korean staff were nice. Choice of movies weak and angled lie-flat seat seems little dated in 2009, when most of big carriers offer fully flat beds in business. Also they're really cutting down on amenities : socks, earplugs, eyeshade were the only ones given out. Water bottles on seats outbound leg, but none on the inbound. And it took 10 minutes after asking before I was able to get glass of water. Seems crew was undermanned or badly organized, cause business class was only half full and they're not being proactive, making sure customer has everything he/she needs. It gets tiring to push the button all the time. On a positive note, Finnair wine offerings were good.

BCN-HEL almost full A321. Enough good seat pitch at row 10. Rather rude crew, with no smiles. Lunch was poor, free drinks including wines are still a good side when flying intra Europe. Flight was punctual.

London to Tokyo and back. Good trip, good entertainment and all round good friendly service. Worth the money!
