thank you and until we meet again

hello FlyerTalk 😊

I’m starting preparations for landing as my ten-year-long flight with Finnair comes to an end this month. As of May I will start a new challenge in a completely different industry. Before that happens I wanted to drop by here and say thank you. It’s been great to interact here on the forum, get to know some of you personally and receive the (sometimes tough) feedback. Ela will continue to represent AY Plus here. The new Head of Loyalty has been appointed and he also promised to say hello.

As I’m starting to strategize how to gain status, I will probably stay around (under a different handle) and keep listening intently.

Enjoy the summer with hopefully many flights onboard AY.

Thanks again,

Karolina

Thanks for constructive engagement with us all! All the best in your future endeavors, and hopefully you stick around under a different moniker!

Just booked first intercontinental flight (AY/BA) in what seems like an eternity. (Flight at the end of November, let's see how this plays out...)

Thank you for listening to us and for the many positive developments in AY+ over the course of the past few years.

Good luck with your new path! Hope to see you in the lounge soon!

Thanks K for bringing AY Plus team and AY FlyerTalkers closer to each other and keeping good contact on between FT and AY Plus.
Not to forget that this approach flying customers was and is something unique here in FT too.

I've been saying for years that AY FT (idiot and non-idiot) group would need female participants, and of course especially funny and laughing ladies, so If You K decide to hunt for AY status or for points, You must join us.

All the best in the future!

I'm usually not short on words, but now I really don't know what to say. ;(


このほどを 花に礼いふ 別れ哉

(Konohodo wo/ Hana ni rei iu/ Wakare kana)

Expressing my gratitude
to blossoms
At the parting.

Thank You for all what you did for FT AY idiots and non-idiots during those years and success in your new path!
I am sure that you have already received a private messages from one or more FT AY Platinum or Lumo members to be gifted with AY Gold card to help gain your status.

Thank you, Karolina, for all that you've done for us FTers. I truly hope your successor will follow in your footsteps in this respect.

I wish you all the best in your future career, and hope to see you soon on a Delhi Deli flight. That's 32 000 status points in J for one run!

Thank you for your dedication. Best wishes to you in your next adventure. You really helped make my AY Plus experience epic. I am definitely not done flying yet and am looking forward to AY long haul again in the future. Maybe I will see you on a flight or catch up with you in a lounge someday.

For those curious Karolina already updated her Linkedin profile with new employer info. Looks like a good Company to work for. Congrats and good luck...
