Personal Speculation: Is there significance behind DPS?
I was trying to decide on a holiday destination, so naturally, I started browsing the destinations page: http://www.finnair.com/int/gb/destinations/asia-pacific
I became a little curious as to why Bali got its own entry in favour of other destinations like KUL or CGK. Any idea why? Future route maybe? |
AFAIK, Finnair has been marketing Bali as a destination for a while - with a connection in southeastern Asia and a non-OneWorld partner obviously.

DPS would fit into the "luxury-leisure" category that Finnair likes, but it does not fit at all into the "northern Asia" strategy. A350 does have the reach to fly HEL-DPS, but flight time will be over 12H, ie AY must use 2 birds on the route if daily. Cannot see that happening.
I think Courmisch is right, it is a partner deal. (interesting it's with JQ and MU. CX HKG-DPS is lovely) |
