Spider, you are probably right.
I, for one, travel in C class (or long-haul) only rarely and, on those occasions, I have been too occupied with other things to notice any crying babies. Or maybe there were not any of them on board. But of course such thing happen - I, for example, know a young couple who took their 1 month old off-spring with them to Chile! (For added horror following should be noticed: this flight was from Helsinki via FRA and BUE and in Lufthansa Y class - total travel time 22 hrs)
I am sure it was rather traumatic experience for parents, for the baby and for all other pax sitting in 15m radius from them.
Aforementioned has, of course, nothing to do with other European Frequent Flyer Programs and, in order to write something more related to Finnair, I want to express my unfeigned disappointment, as I just missed Finnair domestic supersale "Suomi lenton" (r/t flights between HEL-TKU and HEL-TMP, cost 50 EUR). They finished selling on 7/12 (I believe so) and yesterday I realized that taxes were in fact included to that fare (base fare was 22 eur).
Would have been nice mileage run, though.

Guess I made tens of syntax mistakes in my post.

Edited because of confusing wording
