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.

Is there a change of flight number en route? That would explain it.
I hope you deplaned at MHQ and bought tax-free booze.

When I first saw HKI - TKU with layover I thought it was a joke, but you seriously flew from Helsinki to Turku with layover in Mariehamm?
I live in Turku and will go to London on Sunday, just realizing I could have made 6 legs out of this instead of 2. Need to check these connections, maybe this is a nice alternative to the booze cruises...

Finnair is trying something new. There is now a slight discount for AY+ members. It is like 10€, but it is better than nothing. Requires you to be logged in and book via finnair.com

Thanks aapee. Bought flights today but had no idea about this bonus points promotion before your post. Just wonder why can't Finnair have a link to the bonus points page from the Black Friday promotion page...

It doesn't really say, but the text refers mostly to "flight" in singular.
BTW, a funny thing is that the T&C says "Only registered Finnair Plus members are eligible for double points."
Probably just a case of cut&paste marketing though.
