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.

So when politicians run for public office and claim to have "family values", we'll know it is just about the flying..

Hey I m looking for J flights to BKK (SIN or HGK are also OK), I need to go somewhere between the 1st of Aug. and the 15th of Aug. are there any special deals on AY from any european city? Prices ex Germany are too high at the moment.

If you need only 1 seat then check TLL with 3.-12./13. August for under 1500€

If we gonna do this I will take the first flight into TLL and the last one out. On the way back there need to be a stoppover.
Or will it be risky, to book another AY flight out of HEL and going straight to Berlin, without doing that TLL leg?

Why so? I've done it a few times + never seen a bus gate in use for AY at TLL on my other flights out of there either. It ended up being pretty smooth and with enough time to walk around the airport.
I was also worried about RIX, but it appeared to be easy, too. Same gate for AY every time. Enough time to tour around the airport.

Last time I went TLL our ATR was late and bus stand in TLL and TLL-HEL pax already waiting in the bus ready to board, after our bus.
So that was a good lesson, never take same aircraft return in TLL. I had 2 hrs wait booked, so no problem.
