Reasons to avoid Finnair?
Is it just me or are there more reasons to avoid Finnair now than ever? Here are a few things that have bothered me recently.
Finnair Plus:
- the fiasco with the Finnair plus web site
- points not posting
- mostly only 50% points (on Finnish domestic flights on all other booking classes than Y!)
European flights:
- the Embraer experience: no warm food in Y, no business class seating
- the new plastic LCC style slimline seats on A320, A321
Long-haul:
- the poor reliability of the MD11 operations
- cramped economy seating on the MD11's
- poor food offerings
Domestic Finnish operations:
- less and less routes and flights operated
- uncertainty of Finncomm operations (problems with pilots, flight cancellations etc.)
So I get the feeling that Finnair has turned much worse than what it was within a year or so. On the other hand it seems to me that SK and KF are offering much lower prices and friendlier service. If they would improve schedules and get rid of the P-class concept, they could soon be a good alternative to AY also from and within Finland?
