I used the Webchat yesterday as both my flights in 3 weeks time have been cancelled, changed the country to ITA , English. It took almost an hour waiting in the queue, but the agent was friendly and helpful. I gave my details and said my preferred itinerary would be these flights on these days ( end of December returning early January) and had absolutely no problems changing the departure from MXP to FCO. I really hope we can travel again later on the year and hope this helps anyone trying to ammend their booking.

deco105, what time were you using webchat yesterday?
I was originally trying around 1pm Eastern, US/English, and the auto-system said the queue is full? 😦😦
Luckily I went back later around 7pm Eastern, when most of EU went to sleep and immediately got an agent. 🙂

Other funny data was I was rebooked in R class for one of the direction even though EF showed I class, so I had to move the dates a tiny bit more with the agent.

Originally BLQ to CAN for May 2020 but changed to MXP to HKG when the pandemic hit the first time, and now to FCO to HKG.

Any idea if changes to HKG are currently being allowed?
I have CAN return coming up, all flights have been canceled. Looking at the schedules it doesn't look like anything for CAN is loaded (check tp jan 22). Are Finnair allowing anything for this, and which method is best to contact to resolve?

Best method is probably web chat, next best method is "reservation.us AT finnair DOT com". Last I heard from them, they will not rebook anyone who currently holds a ticket to CAN anymore. They will issue a refund, whether you like it or not. Sueing is the only option (which I will probably do).

Moved again, to February 2022.

I called the AY ticket desk at LHR and once I got through it was done efficiently with no problems. I did have to wait on hold for ~20 minutes.

But your previous flight did get cancelled right?

The segments had indeed been cancelled and rebooked automatically.

Has anyone managed to change an open jaw ticket? I have MXP-HEL-HKG // NANJING-HEL-MXP tickets for mid April 2021 and need to push that back as far as possible (e.g. Feb 2022) by flights from NANJING to HEL stop after May 2020. Ideally I'd close the open jaw and return from HKG instead - is Finnair being that accommodating on web chat?

To answer my own question I used webchat on Finnair.com to move my booking from April 2021 to March 2022. Nanjing is not in the schedule but the agent was able to substitute Shanghai instead without a problem. Amazing service

I'm curious to see if the last person to fly on one of these premium oneworld fares will be on this fare for the CX F Vietnam fare.

I should have held out had I known I could push to 2022. I opted for the refund.

Anyone had success changing destination from CAN? I have flights TXL-HEL-CAN for this week, canceled of course, and web chat agents are offering to change date free but not switch destination at all (asked for HKG or failing that anywhere in China).

They claim that as CAN is back in the schedule from early April 2022 it has to be changed to that - giving just a three-week window to fly out and back (as booking only open to mid-April)!
