I also positioned to BUD last Tuesday but it was added on my August WAW-HEL oneway, saving 500+€ in the process. WAW-HEL oneway would have been 700++€, but WAW-HEL-BUD was 220€ - works for me. +10k points for seat 1A to BUD.

Back to HEL was already the first leg of my trip to NGO.

Interestingly AY also sells cheap oneways and openjaws via HEL. As an example, my daytrip to WAW was constructed as an openjaw HEL-WAW//CPH-HEL* and the above mentioned WAW-HEL-BUD. Opens up lots of opportunities.

* the CPH-HEL leg priced out at as "promo fare 50€"(!) - but only as part of the oj.
