Have a look at the detail in the sticky in this thread:

Uber seems to be a popular choice.

Not really I guess, just pointing out that I like the service and it's audit trail better than "licensed taxis". Less chance of being ripped off. You should try the Swissotel next if you've been to the Hilton all these times

Were you in the Hilton lounge tonight? We were sitting on the large sofa. We are on the 12:45 flight to HEL tomorrow

For example in LIS, if I get in to a cab (Not that I even do because the metro is cheap and efficient) and ask to go to my house it'll be around 6-8 euros. However when another member of my family does it, it's 18-25 euros. Guess which one of us speaks Portuguese?

Or perhaps you just look like a local?

Probably already been answered but I'll ask again just in case....
Hand baggage on the Finnair flights.
I believe there is a weight limit as well as a size limit.
How strict are they on they on weight / size?
Whilst I am sure space will not be a problem on the A350 - but space is at a premium on the short hop.
I suspect my normal carry on bag will not do as the weight will be an issue, although not even sure of the size either. So will need a new case for my computer etc.

On the ATR-72, there is a reasonably-sized area behind the crew seat for storage of bigger items of hand baggage. The overhead bins are very small and some passengers asked the crew directly on boarding to store their baggage in the back area

At LHR no check was done on my hand baggage and not at the gate at HEL either.

I think if you use check in they sometimes check the weight, but if you just use a printed or mobile bp then you can avios this. I haven't seen and weight checks for carry on bags at the gates at LHR/HEL/TLL.
