Asian offer is now extended to germany.

What I find interesting is that prices for singapore are actually lower from Continental europe, than from Finland. Maybe Finnair has entered into a market where there are shorter and more competitive routes available.

I also find interesting that BKK offer is missing from Germany offers.

Germany:
Peking 599 € JETZT BUCHEN
Chongqing 579 € JETZT BUCHEN
Delhi 549 € JETZT BUCHEN
Hongkong 599 € JETZT BUCHEN
Nagoya 689 € JETZT BUCHEN
Osaka 689 € JETZT BUCHEN
Seoul 669 € JETZT BUCHEN
Shanghai 599 € JETZT BUCHEN
Singapur 639 € JETZT BUCHEN
Tokio 689 € JETZT BUCHEN

Helsinki:
Bangkok Alk. 629 EUR
Chongqing Alk. 649 EUR
Delhi Alk. 449 EUR
Ho Chi Minh City Alk. 950 EUR
Hongkong Alk. 649 EUR
Seoul Alk. 599 EUR
Singapore Alk. 699 EUR
Tokio Alk. 559 EUR

It's business as usual for AY - ex-HEL (or end-point HEL) pax are penalized for not taking feeder flights...

Latest example for me:

TLL-HEL on AY 3930 - 241 €

TLL-HEL-WAW-HEL - 201 € (same AY 3930 initial flight)

Has anyone been on those CKG flights? It would be interesting to hear what the loads have been like in Y/J.

More like business as usual for any legacy airline, pax flying direct are charged extra for a better product / pax connecting have to be compensated for the extra inconvenience.

Sorry to bump this "old" thread, but did anyone have luck in booking a "point+cash" offer starting outside their own country?
I am trying ex CPH from a swedish account, by first logging in and then switching language. That gives me access to the danish offer search engine, but it ends up in an error "try again later".

why not, change your address to DK, and change it back once booked.

Any current offer from Stockholm to Chongqing? I don't know how to check myself (I have finnish membership) other than just entering date and destination on finnair website but it gives quite a high price, about 8000 SEK.

I made a mistake(?) of booking a leisure trip to Chongqing but am now unsure whether I want to go there alone so I guess I have to lure my Swedish friend to travel with me and I'm sure he says yes if the price is right.

Just go to their Swedish site, there you can find current offers:

Chongqing 6,350 SEK, travel period until further notice.

Yes, for the normal offers, there should be no trouble booking them from any country. (My trouble was with the points+cash-offers - never got that to work)



The CKG route seems to be selling OK, there is not much left of the offer during the summer. A few dates late july is around SEK 6300. Sample date 24/7 - 31/7. Many dates in august are around the 8000 you found.
