    Dan - you are letting out my little secret. From Australia, Finnair has always been the best value business class to Europe from Australia (code share with oneworld carrier via hkg, sin, bkk). It gives such easy access to locations in Europe, yes with an addition stop but the connection the in HEL is quick it’s really not a problem. Please don’t tell anyone else!!! Love your work

    1000% agree with you Dan. We have just traveled on Finnair over the holidays and they had amazing service in-flight, surprisingly the most comfortable business seats (I say surprising because they dont recline!!!) and the thoughts put into every details of their design. We traveled with our 5-year old and once the flight attendant overhears me tell our son about the cockpit, they invited him and the pilot greeted us. That will be an experience to remember for years to come for him! So kudos to Finnair!!
    P.s.: greetings from Bangkok!! we are also your biggest fan and watches all your videos. Looking foreard to your next destinations!

    You can try Finnair's Airlounge business seat on short haul routes too. They have daily widebodies on HEL-LHR route, plus in the coming summer season their HEL-AMS only gets widebodies. But you just need the check the seat maps carefully, their widebody fleet still has 3 different types of cabins.

  • @M158-o3x
    @M158-o3x Год назад +1

    I am a frequent Finnair user and find the service generally excellent but slightly different from your review.
    1. The EXCELLENT Platinum lounge closes around 6pm (or did until December 2022) so there is no access for any any evening departures from HEL.
    2. The buffet in the business lounge section, from my experience is certainly NOT to the same standard as the Platinum lounge and generally looks very unappetising.
    3. You were lucky with the wifi. Cost is not so important to me as the speed/connectivity. Very hit and miss
    4. Now my biggest gripe with Finnair is on the evening departures. Lights dimmed for take office then once airborne the lights come on full blast. Cabin crew will turn down light intensity if asked.
    The seat is very innovative and comfortable. The charging points do work and overall, it remains my airline of choice to the Far East, especially as the flight times have now increased dramatically with having to go south before turning left at Romania. Means a great long nights sleep.
    Great review as always NSD

    I was lucky to try this from DFW to HEL and on a few LHR-HEL flights, and I have to say it is by far my favourite Business Class seat. The bed is perfectly flat for one, which is a thing that always bothered me with the old seats on Finnair a350s and the overall look of the cabin is just so classy and cosy. I am glad Finnair took a real risk with this seat and did not just go out and buy something to follow the crowd.

      Well you can fly Helsinki-Singapore with Finnair and Singapore-Sydney with Qantas. Warning, the Qantas plane feels so outdated.

      ⁠​⁠Well, now you can fly Finnair (or at least Finnair planes) all the way down under as Finnair will start operating some Qantas flights under a wet lease agreement.

    Dan, you make me want to go on this flight just to try the phone. Looks like you really enjoyed it. Thank you for sharing this video.

    As a person who eats plant based, the desert 😍 looked stunning!

    Great, inspiring review! And fyi, by far, the best #eyebrows, and most communicative facial expressions in the business. There needs to be a best-of summary section after each review, featuring only Dan's facial expressions... 😆😆😆

    I got to fly this in August last year and 100% agree it’s one of the best business class products out there. I LOVE the food too.
