Current and historical promotions

This is a thread for reporting details of promotions in the Finnair+ program.

The purpose of the wiki is to keep a repository of current and historical promotions. This works best if all details are given in a post of the thread. Once such a post is made, edit the wiki and add a short description of promo in headline-style, with a link to the post that holds the detailed information. (You can create such a link by right-clicking the post-number and copy link location).
Do not link to the promo itself from the Wiki, as the promo page is likely to disappear once the promo ended and such link will die, leaving the wiki sans historical info.

Feel free to discuss alterations to the format in the thread below.

Do not delete historical posts.

There was "Aloita" button. Once you've pressed it it changes to "Varaa lentoja" button.

Now they have clarified it:
•Registration period: 15 May–15 June 2017. To earn the extra points, you need to activate the mission by clicking on the Start button on your profile page
So no need to book flights if you have already some booked from my point of view.

My interpretation is, sadly, that flights booked before clicking that start button don't count...

Well, quite a useless promo anyway.

I can't find that "start" button. Where is it? I can only see the "book flights" button.

At least CS wrote to me now that
Existing bookings are also eligible.

Only peanuts for us I know, but for Jorma flying intra-Europe on cheap tickets only a nice boost of earnings.

And in my case 6000 points for the household.^

yes. And whether flights booked before count, I have one tomorrow so let's see if it rolls the counter or not.

This is indeed meeh promo. I have now 3 days in a row rolled the "lottery" and that one is very stupid, you need to dice many times to get the finnair logo with no logic. Just clicking. Oh well. Very enticing.

And the quiz. I am now from beginner to "experienced" already, there are again new questions, and more grayed out as "coming soon". Very exciting indeed.

however, stupid I am doing it. That's gamification at best

Yeah. I can see a new slogan emerging: "Flying with Finnair is a bit like gambling"

I pushed the "start" button for both AY and partner airlines the day before yesterday. Flew yesterday 2 flights on AA (booked well in advance) and the points for the first of them have already posted. Still the campaign page says I've flown 0 flights on partner airlines.

Seems the campaign page updates with a delay. Now it shows I've flown on 1 partner airline.

Quite hidden in the Finnair shop - the "1000p" products are "25p" products in May. If you'd buy some products anyway, this can be a nice discount (e.g. a DeLonghi coffe maker is 130€ discounted for 25p)

I did browse the shop a bit but never found any good offers vs on market

When it was still available, I bought an alu Rimowa from the AY shop for a rather acceptable price. No Rimowa there for many years now, so the next purchase has the Lufthansa logo on it...
