we haven’t heard from Simon in a while, good to see he’s doing ok
Who is that ?
@@madhavshroff5240 another member of the Simply Aviation crew
@@madhavshroff5240yeah
Felix, David and Simon :)
Seat is just pure perfection. Its so cozy, wide and spacious that you can chill in it however you want
I flew on Finnair in Dec 2019 on a itinerary from PHX -> JFK -> HEL -> DEL. The service was excellent, seats comfortable and overall a great experience. The only problem is the long layover at HEL because the non-Shenzhen side is absolutely dead around mid day.
LOL! dude, I flew the LAX-HEL-DEL route and the non-Schengen area was bustling and quite busy around mid day. And by the way it's "SCHENGEN" and not "SHENZHEN". What a bluff!
"Open the pod bay doors, Hal....." @ 1:16 ( sorry, I couldn't resist ). I love Finnair's glassware too! This sure seems like one of the best business class seats in the sky! The catering looked fantastic!
Flew with them on their Helsinki-HKG route on business class in their a350, but I wasn´t lucky to try their new product, looks amazing.
It's named after Moomins, the characters from Finnish children book, which was later ecranised in a form of TV series. I liked them, when I was young.
Finnair has like 2planes with the moomin, one a former MD-11 and another an A350
@@senabecool7232 As part of livery?
@@igorsiuda8108 yep
it looks like arabic word moomin=devout مؤمن
@@senabecool7232Two A350s currently has the livery (OH-LWP and OH-LWO)
The snow cover during takeoff reminded me of that infamous ORD takeoff video by a KLM B744. Absolutely beautiful.❤
Finnair trip report? Thumbs UP!!! S2
Thx Simon for making us, peasants, jealous again🤣
Great video as always! Finnair latest cabin products are surely stunning! :)
stunning business class Finnair!
Great report. I love their glassware too!!
Great video never disapointed!
I wonder if this is just a quirk of European English vs the North American English I'm used to, but I've noticed it in several Simply Aviation videos:
When the captions say "in here you *may* find the tray table" it always sounds to me like it might be there or it might not be lol
I would expect to hear (or read) a more definitive "in here you *will* find the tray table"
Personally, I think it is a quirk of European English.
I must say that this is one of the best presented reviews I have ever seen. As a chef the food looked stunning for airline food and the venison .....wow what a treat
W Finnair
Great flight. What an improvements, their hard products is great. Also not forgetting the food.
always a pleasure watching your vlogs....the real sights and sounds and presentation as you see it is awesome..Keep up the great work
Fantastic trip report Simon!😸
Thank you so much for the awesome vids 😊
Great Video!! Amazing!😁😁😁😁😁
Great work!
Oh the landing...butter 🧈 ,makes sense as this is the a330 A.K.A butter machine 😅
12:39, Yes I love when they have a window inside the lavatory. I wish all airlines and fleets have a window inside the lavatory.
Lol what for
Yes, especially during night flights you can just go in to the bathroom and open the windows without disturbing anyone.. Works great with their night flight over the north pole
Good to see u again Simon🎉
smoothly
I flew back from HKG to HEL in May this year with this new product. The hard product was awesome - the bulk heads have more space for the feet, I’m 1.93 and had plenty of space! The food was a let down, it looks better out of HEL though. Great report, thanks!
I flew with them in May too and on the same route! didn't have a bulkhead seat but it was still comfortable. Can definitely agree about the food though. :)
@@williamsymonds3538 we were lucky to have the long route hey? Haha. No but srsly hard and soft product were miles apart unfortunately. Nevertheless I loved the seat!
I was in the atc tower in arlanda 2 times and the latest time i saw a finnair a330
Nice Finnair a330-300
Nice review. Liked the look of that food. And I like the cut of Finnair's jib. Travelling between LHR and the Far East, I would even consider going via Helsinki just to try the airline out.
I love your channel so much👍❤️
Sehr schönes Video muss ich sagen
Off the topic. I like the sound of the Finnish language, even just briefly heard in this video. But it's such a hard language 😅
nice
👍
congrats for 600k!
Great video comrades, really! The flight, and the *lounge* ... I wish I could fly business class like You😅
Anyways great video as always!
IDEA:
Could You make a TripReport in Premium Economy please?
I've seen that you haven't got even 10 of videos with it, and I think overally it's very underrated. So if you Could then please Premium Economy. Thank You!❤
Somewhat surprised Simon didn’t make the slightest mention about this new seat as being “Revolutionary” “Controversial” in the Industry, No Recline etc. & didn’t even show the procedure to make it into a bed or the best ways to sit in it in normal mode, only just mentioned in the title & captions that it’s brand new. I’ve always seemed to find Simon’s reviews slightly different to David/Felix. My own humble opinion ofcourse😊 Anyway, other than that, a nice overall review…& that view of the plane on the snow covered tarmac👌🏻🤩
Good video
Bro came for shopping 😂
I will never understand why people have to take so much baggage on to the actual aircraft. Ther is thing called a baggage hold for them and as they are travelling on a full service carrier then they have this thing called a check baggae allowance.
15:32 is that a Fazer chocolate wrap on top of the screen?
Great video! They look like a really improved airline Finnair. Inhave one question. Could someone explain the demand fir flight to Seattle and Hong Kong to me?
Indians working in Seattle flying to India via Helsinki
@@daemonavn ah okay, sounds logic. Thanks for the answer sir😃
Oooo
Simon!
Finnair business class+a330 butter machine=👌
So flying business class has it's perks, i need to experience it .
nice video. is it possible for you to put the airfare everytime you travel. thank you
As always, it’s listed in the description of the video! :)
Can you review biman Bangladesh dhaka to toronto flight I heard amazing 5 meals provided!!
Hmm....gab es da mal nicht ein Video, wo Ihr Euch beide vorstellt und auf Fragen antwortet? Finde ich irgendwie nicht mehr 🤔
Can you fly play air next from New York to reyjavik
Can I stay on board for another lap, please.
Hello again simon
Can you try to fly Vietnam Airlines Flight VN99 from San Francisco to Ho Chi Minh by Airbus A350-900XWB?
Their primary focus is to fly on as many of airlines and aircraft types as possible instead of specific routes. They’ve already flown on Vietnam Airlines’ A350-900 from Hanoi to Sydney.
I am considering Finnair to be my carrier for my next trip to japan
Is their economy class as good as EVA Airs?
I don't know how good EVA is but i've flown Finnair economy plenty of times and i can say it's really good. Plenty of room, modern and brand new IFE screens.
they will be pretty much the same...maybe EVA air will have a slightly more space
What moomim cafe?
Moomins are Finnish cartoon figures, popular in northern Europe and in Japan especially
Aviation my dream success
could you please make a video about MAI, Myanmar Airways International. It is the best airline I have ever boarded on.
Flying business/first class looks out of this world i swaer i think i would feel so ashamed by so many privileges if i flew like that
Surprise surprise, a trip report by Simon. Welcome back, but is there a reason why Simon doesn't do trip reports often,...oh wait, i have it. Simon is married with children and so can't make regular trips, but David and Felix are not. That has to be it. I am smart. 😃😉☺
I think Simon travels on business
so cost cutting is revolutionary…
when you are smart enough, you can make a better, revolutionary product and cut costs at the same time. or do you think the most expensive way of doing things is always the best?
12:20 Of course, no smoking! This would lead to a fire, which, in way, would cause a deadful airplane crash.
I can't see lol
The presentation of the main course looks awful. I am flying this next month. I chose bulkhead seats in the hope the footwell will be larger.
Bad idea having an open bar for Finns before boarding an airplane. Hopefully there are no incidents with drunks.
Actually the Finnish drinking habits are quite moderate these days 😉 The Germans, Brits, French etc consume more per head
last year in Riga airport at 6 AM a man bought two .5 liter beers at a store near the departure gate. 10 minutes later he threw both cans in the trash and then came back with two more. @@mikrokupu
@@mikrokupuand people usually get drunk only in leisure flights to spain 😂
@@mikrokupubut lets not forget the usual oak barrell before the flights 😂😂
@@jounaas I can confirm that. HEL-LPA a year ago. Went to stretch my legs in the empty rear galley and a guy asked if I sell booze 😂
Behave the lounge is poor.... the food is nothing but salad and carbs! I was there in late Aug and again in early sept and the only thing that had changed food wise, was they changed the type of pasta being served.
So in Finland they skip the clean aircraft procedure 😱 Ice and snow can shut down an engine😱😱😱
watch that video again, they did have a de-icing. that tiny bit of ice on the window is not going to end up in the engine and not going to shut it down anyway. ice is not removed primarily because of the engines anyway, it is more about aerodynamics.
@@kata7218 so you work with aircraft de-icing?
@@hrl749no, I just fly the planes. But as I said, you can see that they did de-ice the a/c.
@@kata7218 So you as a pilot feel safe flying an aircraft where the de-icing procedure has not been followed? If you don't know what happened in the past when procedures were not followed, you should probably drive a school bus instead of flying an airplane :)
@@hrl749
Clearly you have no idea what you are talking about. But tell me, what makes you think the de-icing procedure was not followed? You must be an expert, more than me. And yes, I feel completely safe flying planes after de-icing, even if there would be a tiny bit of ice left on the fuselage. The plane would fly just fine even without de-icing, but the performance would not be as expected and in single engine situation it wouldn’t fly. There might sometimes be a tiny bit of ice left, even if they spray the whole fuselage. And sometimes only wings and stabilizer are sprayed. You said that plane can lose an engine because of that small piece of slush on the window, which tells me enough about your knowledge. Merry Christmas!
Your service was better than mine, finnair is the worst business class I've ever been on!!!
