One world benefits to Finnair?
hello,
Flying HBO back to London on Finnair tomorrow with the Mrs. I am Oneworld emerald (BA gold) and the Mrs is no status.
On my boarding pass I am group 1, the mrs is group 4 same booking. Is this correct? Is she allowed to board with me in group 1? Flying from Heathrow to Helsinki she was group 1...
Priority security - if I show my OWE card is she allowed to join for priority security? Or should we both use regular?
Lounge - I see non Schengen is being refurbished... is there a lounge we can enjoy and is it worth spending time?
Thanks,
mikkel

priority security - you can take in one guest. although I normally ignore it and use the security closest to the non-schengen area since you'll have to walk that way anyway and there is seldom much of a queue.
lounge - there will be the regular finnair lounge in the non-schengen area (only the premium lounge is closed). if you are flying around 4-6pm you will probably not get a seat though.
boarding groups - they don't really enforce it, tell them you're travelling together if it's really important you get onto the plane early and sit there for 10 minutes while all the other passengers file onboard.
