According to the CCM this is due to a too low inventory of Bose headsets. As there is not enough Bose headsets for J, economy comfort headsets are provided instead.

They told us at the Kitchen event that Bose had discontinued aircraft headphones and that they would therefore be phased out at some point.

But did phase out also mean not replacing them (and use economy headphones until they are also phased out)?


I guess we are not going to see them give away brand new headphones to everyone anytime soon... Luckily I've stacked up on these.

I could be wrong, but if they are not making new ones, isn’t phase out equivalent to not replace them?

If so, they eventually end up offering no headphones in J?

Well, there are always those €1 earphones from Y.

Perhaps ancillary revenue in J = €1 earphones included in your ticket price, Bose headphones can be enjoyed for a rental fee of €20 or 10 000 AY+ points.

It seems illogical to cheapen J when they are about the introduce Y+. Unless they are going for a DY-style LCC business class, a Y+ similar to standard Y and a Y class as a FR-style Y.

Small annoyance with the AY App, it shows wrong "bag drop closes 60min prior to dep" for at least some domestic flights. I asked yesterday at IVL and they said it was wrong, they knew about and apologized..it's not too bad for people who know it's wrong but still annoying...and would be so easy to fix, if they cared..

Send also the feedback to mobile.development (at) finnair.com - they have usually been very active on feedback and also promote this feedback channel in the (at least) Apple App Store app information.

I sent feedback right away when they introduced this feature. They never responded so I wonder if it was intentional.

I was booking a flight in Y, after that I changed my seats to exit row - then I used the option for upgrades - on leg was upgraded on the spot the other one is on waitlist. I lost my exit row seats and can´t move my seats in J class (even if the seats of my choice a free) - then I called CS and they told me that they can´t touch the booking since one leg is on waitlist - so this means I had good seats at the exit row - and after the attempt of upgrading the flights I got seats I never will choose by my own - and no one can/will help to fix this.

CS is wrong. They can assign you seats manually while your upgrade is pending. I've done this several times.

It's definitely possible for the CS to change your Y seats while being on the waitlist. Once - a couple of months ago - it also apparently led to the robot rethink the waitlist and my upgrade got cleared at the same time. (Janica didn't seem to have anything to do with the clearing of the upgrade.)
