I've been living in Hangzhou (HGH) for the past 2 months and have taken one trip to HEL with QR and I'm doing another one in early December. For both bookings the flight time and transfer time are ridiculously long, not counting the fact that QR only sells tickets to ARN/CPH instead of HEL. The reason I chose QR over AY is simply the price of their J tickets and the quality of the product. I won't pay double for AY especially when their "J" out of HGH includes an Air China Y to PEK for 3000+€.
OT: Got my plat card hand delivered. Like a boss. Now I'm stuck here in China with no domestic OW carriers and absolutely no benefits at all...
