Mini do: Helsinki, 31 Jan to 02 Feb, 2020
 
A short winter city break over a weekend in Helsinki, so we have something to look forward to after Christmas. No driving on this trip, just chilling out in the city. Probably quite chilly. :)

Most of us are on BA 794 out (Friday) and BA 799 back (Sunday). Arriving on Saturday is fine as well if you have no annual leave left.

In I class the price was £209 for 160 TPs so a nice few tier points for every £. I think however we are now down to R class seats only which adds a few extra pennies.

The hotel is the Hilton Helsinki Strand.

A programme of events has yet to be devised, but I think there will be a free walking tour on Saturday morning and probably a few drinks in the evenings.

Bring your mittens.

Put me down as a maybe, I've been to HEL but never left the airport. I'm just looking at the MAN-HEL AY flights.

Unbelievable!!! Couldn't you have chosen a different weekend??

I am already going to Helsinki that weekend. I wonder if it is a refundable fare? Yet another weekend ruined!!!

:p

I feel this is a hollow gesture - which other BA return flight would you have picked that day instead? :p ;)

I have added a wiki. Please feel free to add as many HEL puns as you can think of.

This seems fun. I'm going to play around with flights and see if I can make it work.

Not sure you guys want cistavoda around! You will have to endure heavy drinking for 48 hours and will suffer from a massive hangover! :D

I speak from experience. :(

Only those who sober up ever suffer from hangovers ;)

Tough luck, I'll be warming up in DXB for some CGK travel at that time, so I have to pass.

Wish you all a HEL lot of fun! :)
