Thumbs up Upgrades for half the points on European flights

"To Business Class for half the points."

I think this is a great offer.

It's there, just select the tab for Finnair Plus Member Benefits (i.e. the middle one) from the top of the "board".

I hope that offer would not be limited to summertime only. But it will certainly change my AY ticketing habits also for work related flying to EU for duration of time the offer is valid, goodbye booking classes C. D, I, J, Y, B, H!

Also SK has nice point bargains to fly within Scandinavia, but just between June and August. 10000 points + €34 KUO-HEL-CPH-HEL-KUO in KF Prem Eco + SK J...

Does anybody have any details on terms and conditions?

Book by when? Fly when?

And does "European Flights" mean all flights within Europe (inc. e.g. ARN for 3750 points) or "flight to what Finnair has classified as Europe", i.e. all the normally 10K flights for 5K.

Should have asked, but didn't. It definitely works for MAN-HEL

And now they offer the Northern European destinations for half the points from Finland until mid-august. Not going to waste my points to pay fees to Finnair that are more than el-cheapo tickets on competition. Still worthwhile if one absolutely needs to be somewhere on short notice.

Thanks for the tip! I just took advantage of this for mid-August for me and mrs clifford.

Turns out I had some outdated information in my Finnair Plus profile, I also updated that now so hopefully I won't miss out on any future offers.
