Well, looking at the destination list, this sounds like a very credible explanation.

That might work, although I’ve been to Bologna already. Another alternative would be to book flights only to RMI and divide my time between Rimini, San Marino and something else on the Aegean coast. Those RMI flights do look expensive, though. Thanks for the tip!

Might be a stretch to combine the Aegean coast. 😁

Finnair A330 to Beijing Daxing 3x weekly, starting in November:

"Finnair adds capacity to Beijing with three weekly flights to the new Beijing Daxing International Airport, which opens for operation by 30 September, 2019. Finnair will operate to Beijing International Daxing Airport on Mondays, Wednesdays and Sundays as of 3rd November, 2019 with an Airbus A330 aircraft.

PKX night service will replace BKK 143/144 from 31MAR20.

Lets see what is AY going to do with BKK summertime 2020 schedules.

Isn't it a bit strange that AY will operate to both Peking area airports?

Why? AY operates to multiple airports in Finland and there's less people...

Operating to PKX makes sense if the cooperation with CZ really happens (unless CZ had started PKX-HEL).

And didn't they try (and ostensibly fail) to get a slot at HND in addition to NRT?
