IMO it isn’t exactly ethical to leave these passenger lists lying around for customers to see but neither it is to take pictures of them and publish.

Fair enough, I thought it was generic enough just showing tier, no names or flight number. Anyhow deleted it.

Umm... yes the AI 787 have working toilets. But pax on AI have a rather indifferent attitude to public toilets, and AI cleaning staff a rather indifferent attitude to cleaning in general

Who would have thought that AY's non-working toilets are the better option!

I would choose a non-working Finnish toilet over a supposedly-working Indian one any day

I'm not sure this tops the AY solution of putting a a tape across basin with the meaning "do not use".

The airport calls it the "World's longest layover" which hardly is correct no matter how oyu look at it (What about the guy living at CDG? And isn't a layover when you transfer somewhere, not when you are at your destination?).

He is a Chinese actor, I guess he is coming in from China and eventually returning to China. That would make it a layover, no?

And a pretty cool marketing campaign for exactly what AY is looking for! ^

We'll see... And having read what Wikipedia and Tripadvisor have to say, I can't really call us lucky if we are to have Lucky in HEL.

Is it that distinct from main lines HU? I thought that HU had about as many subsidiary airlines as hubs, to please local authorities ego - a Chinese city must have its own airline to be on the map.

Does someone know what is happening in DUS area on week starting 16 Oct.. Almost all flights from HEL sold out / only super expensive Y/B/H available for most. And what would be the best alternative option to fly, FRA? Or are there any direct train services from AMS or BRU for example.
