Does someone know what is happening in DUS area on week starting 16 Oct.. Almost all flights from HEL sold out / only super expensive Y/B/H available for most. And what would be the best alternative option to fly, FRA? Or are there any direct train services from AMS or BRU for example.
My experiences from FRA to Köln is that usually its about 50 eur one way if you book the fast ICE train and it took about an hour. From Köln it takes about 35min to get to DUS. And it cost about 12 euros

HELsinki, Espoo and Vantaa are having a syysloma/vacation week in schools. That´s why there´s not a single seat to sell to many destinations in the Mediterranean. We are flying to FCO and it´s completely sold out on some flights. Also LHR, CDG etc are very full during the start and end weekends.

I did a search and found out that we don't have a separate thread about the corporate program (FCP) and even very few mentions of it. I know only of a few here that are enrolled in it and I guess not enough happens in it for it to be a frequent topic on FT...
Anyway, I've learned that they are considering a revamp of it and if plans come true there might be some interesting things coming out for those of you who are in a business not big enough for a stand-alone corporate contract.

So we will spend our autumn break in cold Finland

Looking to partner up with BA?!
Does anyone have access to arvopaperi and perhaps can debunk that preamble? I assume he is referring to the size of BA, not the actual BA as a new owner? Can't possibly see what good could come out of that.

Ey, with a tripling of value in 9 months you should be happy as taxpayer! Your value (per capita) from the dirty game is around 200€ now, instead of 65€ a year ago!
