New user here, as I wanted to easier follow this whole change-saga
But, on topic, I actually also did something and check some one-way routes from HEL to various SH-destinations (lowest price as looked from the calendar).
ARN: the cheapest price used to be 51€, still mostly 51€, but there are some 49€ flights for Jan-Mar 24 available. AMS has the same, used to be 82€, and still mostly the same, but some 76€ flights available at Oct-Dec 23. But when looking into the chepeast alternatives: BER, CPH, LHR, MXP, FCO, CDG, MAD, LIS, ZAG, KEL (all others I checked), the cheapest price of a ELIGHT yesterday is the same than ESLIGHT today.
So, you can fly HEL-ARN 2€ cheaper or HEL-AMS 6€ cheaper (though, still paying 9 or 14 euros more of that bag you lost without status) but that was all I found. But technically the marketing team can say that this led to lower prices
