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.

Most likely ex-HEL Black Friday deals are already out (= in the system, but not promoted on AY's website). Just seeing the famous Finnish blog with prices around €70 to OSL / CPH / RIX, €470 HKG, €500-ish SIN etc. I doubt they will release anything even better.

What were the prices like? Countdown for Finland is supposed to end tomorrow morning. Now checking 500 SEK ex-Sweden, €50 ex-Estonia discounts, but cannot find a single combination at advertised prices.

Also, the early info said something about members getting something special. Can't see anything of that.
There is a grand offer of 20% discount on comfort seats.

Several country sites are already loaded - guess what? I checked SIN for several origins - the week before and after Easter (25.3-7.4) is blacked-out for the black Fri offers. If I didn't have ~400€ in AY vouchers, I'd say screw it and book elsewhere. I still might.

Darn just booked 3x economy comfort seats HEL-SIN return the day before the 20% offer came (to UK site at least)... Can you cancel such a seat choice and rebook with the discount straight away online? Or do you think customer services will take pity on me if I ask?!
