01 Aug 14:30 - 17.00 Hessu HEL T2 Schengen Lounge.

Interesting to see if the Aug 1st changes in entry policy have any effect on the afternoon rush hour madness at that lounge.

I'm pretty easy to spot: I'm probably the only female with a plat bag tag (and wearing jeans) in the lounge. And my bag is distinct. I'm usually in either Schengen or non-Schengen on working days at 6.45-8 am, 1-2 days a week.

I think it is up to us all to throw out some ideas and suggestions. Maybe it would be time to organize something in downtown Helsinki before it gets too cold and miserable again?

How about an ATR DO to TLL/MHQ/?

EDIT: Can't be TLL since it's too short for Sky Bistro service...

I'm a little curious about this, but I'm backpacking in SE Asia until Sept 12th so for me it will have to be next time.

I am back on AUG 30 from some Asian travels, and would try to make it if the date works in my schedule.

That being said I already have flights 5-8 Sept and 17sept-2 okt...
