Just a quick confirmation before booking my positioning flights. Immediate turnaround in HAJ should be very easy (see BA forum), but are there any risks? By risks I mean that a Schengen arrival would need to go through security before boarding the same aircraft. Even in that would happen, clearing security should be easily doable during the 50min that the plane stays on the ground.

Wouldn't you be entering the Schengen zone at HEL (not HAJ)? Why would you need to go through security again for an intra-Schengen connection at HAJ?

It's now been two full weeks since this fare was originally loaded. Is there any reason to wait longer before finalizing positioning flights and other plans?

Because some airports spit you out outside the transit area, probably because they see very little (or no) transit traffic.
For example SXF.

Yep, that happend to me in XIY (China). Although both legs were booked on one ticket I needed to check in again at the counter and go through security. I think I wouldn't risk the 50 min.

Can someone confirm how BLQ, HAJ, and STR are setup for connections? I have a tight 1hr "connection" at BLQ due to back to back trips.

It really depends from the airport. In BRU 50 min is plenty of time, same for ARN, while In LHR T5, 50 min isn't feasible.
I have a direct turnaround in BLQ with AY on this fare; being a small airport, and Schengen to Schengen I've decided to take the gamble.

From the wiki, I see you're having the b2b before me...

the ba forum has an authoritative thread on this

looks like BLQ and STR are both reasonable- they talk about having to go through passports and security but bear in mind that would be for non-schengen arrivals. Didnt check HAJ

might be worth someone posting a generic question in the thread and feeding back here
