As my only bag it contains valuables such as laptop, keys, wallet, a battery charger pack, dress watch, and things I want in the flight such as cables and a book. So now my Club Europe experience involves carrying these items in a plastic bag

The 40 seat prop plane from Milos to Athens with tiny overhead space accepted 12kg bags in the cabin

What the hell is Finnair doing?
Sounds like misinformed check in agent to me attempting to apply AY policy to a BA flight.

Just because the aircraft is leased in from Finnair has zero bearing on the baggage policy (which is a BA one and not a AY one).
