AY flight leaves HEL at 09.25. Perfect for flying in the night before at 23.00 (leaving LHR at 18.00) and staying at the Scandic, within the terminal building.
Alternatively the AY / SU codeshare leaves at 1830 IIRC, with a good connection off the AY/ BA codeshare from LHR at 12.30.
SO on HEL-SVO is very nice, on a new A-321, only a few rows of club and nice service. honestly.
