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.

Good prices - BKK at least seems to have Sat night/7 days rule for the 13k SEK, otherwise it's 19k. (looking at November)

And again today is a "more award points day".
I received a personal link with 3000 extra (award)points for every reservation made today.

Too bad extra award points are based on flights and not bookings. Why shouldn't I be able to earn award points even though I credit elsewhere (and get status bennies)

Got the same e-mail today. I love the following sentence:
"What's more, when you book flights today 23 August for travel before 30 November, 2017, you'll earn an amazing 3000 extra points as a thank you for being our loyal newsletter subscriber."

I got the link via email too. And indeed, it seems to be personalized insofar as clicking it immediately got me subscribed to the promo.
Now, if only I had a flight booking to make...

I got the promo email after 3 pm, so for business travellers not really optimal

Don't like what I see in the booking process: booking class I, Finnair Plus points only 150%! Just wonder if it is another mistake or are there some changes coming?

EDIT: For me it shows 200% in the description of Business Campaign.

It very prob is a glitch, as when making query from ARN directly, it shows 200%, but when making it with stopover in HEL, it shows only 150%.

Obligatory IT joke: It's not a bug, it's a feature.

I didn't had to make a flight booking, but I wanted to get my last points for Plat 2 months earlier. If everything works it should be over 10k award points for two tickets: 2 times 3k for this promo plus 2 times over 1k for the flights and 2k for the Accor promo.
