Helsinki Airport things to do past 9pm
Um. I've just noticed I now have a long'ish layover between my ARN - HEL flight AY816 to my HEL - SIN flight AY131. AY816 lands at 2015 and AY131 departs at 2355 (when it's on time / never). Given the airport seems like it'll be a ghost town after 9 (when the last of the take out places close) what is one to do about food until a very delayed SIN flight?!

Im in a similar situation, and Ive been thinking about the same issue. The landside Subway is open the latest. Since they only do takeaway, I cant help but think how homeless pax (me included) will feel, strolling around the terminal, with the only goal being killing time.

It was so bad once for me in this pandemic with a long wait and everything closed, I started considering trying to have a conversation with the vending machine when my phone died and I realized that I accidentally packed my charger in my checked bag.

The only place which at the airport is allowed to serve food in the evening is the ST1 gas station. But it is naturally closed on Sundays and closes by 18:00 all other days.AUKIOLOAJAT

St1, Air BP, Neste and some private stations share the same property (real estate identification 92-407-5-115) as restaurants and lounges at the airport. Does it count as "polttonesteiden jakeluaseman yhteydess" as the Communicable Diseases Act 58 a states?
