Review of Finnair flight Helsinki → Madrid in Business

Conclusion

Well, i am a Finnair`s fan but in this schengen flight don't have nothing special, the crew was from Spain and was nice, but i think in 4 hours flight have to have options in the dinner and maybe IFE or magazines. You can just watch a short Charles Chaplin`s film.
Have a ocean between the service in International´s flight and Schengen flights in Finnair. My best flight was with they in the A350 (Report soon).

  Thanks for the report.
  
  The lounge looks really busy... I guess it wasn't a really pleasant experience.
  
  As for the flight, it was a standard intra EU experience.
  
  As you said the intra EU experience is really different from their long haul products and I thinks that's a major problem with the Europeans carriers. For a 4 hour flight you would really expect a better service.

  Hey, sure, your right. Even a EU flight, for 4 hours i think is a poor service onboard and the seats are not good. But sometimes you can found a cheap price to fly this route so i think can't ask too much too.

  Thanks for sharing this FR!
  
  The AY Lounge is chic, but often crowded from the photos I see of it.
  
  The menu is a nice touch, but if there are no options on the menu, then it is kind of a tease. AY catering looks average for intra-European flights (even though it comes on the fancy Marimekko tableware) and its pretty poor that they ran out of Diet Coke... 2016-02-23 00:35:37

  Hey, the lounge is nice, stylish and the most nice touch is you can see the runway and the slots from there, was snowing so was a nice stay. I just have a problem, i hate the places where you need fight for the food or see too much people in a buffet taking for rice and a few pasta. So i just take pictures for the report and i went to a bar to take a drink and relax, not in the Lounge because was too much full for me.
  But was a nice place, i hope visit again in other hour time.
