When is the last time you tried this? As in, accessing an AY lounge with a non-OW flights? Because I noticed that this perk is gone from AY's webpages. I used it last July successfully, do you have a more recent data point that confirms it one way or another?

I have a non OW flight coming up and hope that this Lumo perk isn’t gone.

Ok, so here we are as Gold. Couple things
- status in account gold
- status in on board crew device gold
- Janica insist that benefits at airport seizes to exist excl HEL due to BP having correct status, why HEL would be different, I have no idea
- 4 of my recent BP's have still status as Platinum
Difficult to say what happens in March, but from OW benefits perspective with valid plastic card and BP's it would be weird if one could not use all OWE off the air benefits. So, bit of a mess, especially with Janica's contradictory information.
But definately plat benefits on the air are no more

Noticed some changes on the app today. Clicking on profile on bottom left now shows a picture of a membership card (or close enough). There's an arrow that expands to show your tracking period. Mine is supposed to end May 2020. Below that it says Finnair Plus Platinum valid until July 2020 which is something I didn't see before. Anyone else seeing the same?

iOS here too. Not sure if we can take this to mean that there’s officially a grace period of 2 months after end of tracking period. Although perhaps this grace period would cover some of the benefits only and not things like the 25% tier bonus.
