Is This the Future of Business Class? 13hrs on Finnair's No-Recline A350 - Helsinki to Singapore

Hello and welcome to Istanbul! My entire itinerary includes three flights: Istanbul - Helsinki - Singapore, and then Hong Kong. The total duration of this exciting journey comes close to 52 hours, and I get to enjoy business class services with three different airlines, all for the affordable price of AU$2200. I consider this an absolute bargain, which is why I booked these tickets.
In this video, I will be focusing on Finnair's exclusive flagship lounge in the non-Schengen zone: the Platinum Wing. I'll also be exploring Finnair's newly-refurbished A350 Business Class, featuring Collin’s AirLounge seats. What makes these seats unique is that they don't recline. Instead, the seat-back seamlessly blends with the sidewall, creating a semi-enclosed cocoon-like structure designed to resemble a piece of classic Nordic furniture rather than a simple airline seat. Curious about my experience? Let's dive in!

Having done a trip booked directly with Finnair I agree that they have a great product. Our flights (also in June) which were multi leg SYD-HKG-HEL-TLL and OSL-HEL-SIN-SYD, that went seamlessly considering the tight connections. The SYD-HKG leg was operated by QF and the SIN -SYD leg by SQ.

[@zakelwe]

As well as all the relevant information your videos have such great videography, I especially enjoyed the shots of Istanbul at the start and the A350, both with great sunset/sunrise lighting. They are always at the right pace as well. The price you got almost made me fall off my seat, that is fantastic bang per buck. I have to say Turkish Airlines european business class puts BA to shame both on the seats and that great meal. The lounges in Helsinki both good, the premier one did look fantastic. Having a broken spine the only way I could use the non reclining seats would be if they provided enough cushions to support my back in a 45 degree position, but they seemed to do that. Looking forward to Cathay Pacific trip now. All the best.

[@RoryDing]

Thank you for watching the entire video! I'm delighted that Turkish Airlines chose not to follow the trend of European airlines when it comes to business class on narrow-body jets 😅.

Lovely review Rory. Your my favourite airline reviewer 😊. Rory could you mention where you got this cheap business fare and what were load factors like. Thanks

I booked these flights directly on Finnair’s website. The last time I checked those fares are still there! Finnair has two versions of refurbished A350s, one with 43 business class seats and the other with 30, it uses the 43-seat version on flights to Singapore and the business cabin was almost full on my flight.

This Finnair business class product does seem to be an improvement over the older one. The old one was just awful with rock hard seats, terrible lighting and food that was pretty much straight out of economy class. Maybe I’ll try it again one day.

Nice Rory, I flew this exact same route in business class two weeks ago and I had the same mains, starters and dessert haha (I sat in 2K). Great video as always, I really enjoyed the seat. Only Q-suite is ahead for me so far

[@arielfrancisleathem3280]

Another brilliant video Rory. I agree that the lack of a midflight meal is disappointing as Qantas and Emirates both offer two meals and a snack in economy on flights of similar lengths. However, the new Finnair business class looks delightful.

[@RoryDing]

Agreed. I think they should definitely serve a light snack between the two meals 😅😊

[@alexmcwhirter6611]

It's because AY is having to make cost cuts. It has lost market share for its flights from HEL to Asia because it cannot overfly Russia and therefore its flight schedules are not good. I mean just look at how long it takes for a flight out of HEL to NE Asia (compared to before the start of the Ukraine conflict).

[@pacmanc8103]

The business class seat pod is certainly unique. As a person who changes the position of a seat back fairly often (which is why I have a recliner at home), I’m not a fan at all of the Finnair seat - the idea of a 10 hour flight in a fixed position seat is not at all appealing to me. The oval-shaped tray table also looks really small. I give Finnair kudos for attempting something different (potato salad with a pea sauce - really?), but I certainly wouldn’t book a journey across the Atlantic on Finnair.

[@fortressepiphany9068]

[@petewatson9866]

Hi Rory When you said Turkish Airlines has good food, and I can totally agree with you best in class. But what I really don’t like is the small leg room you get, especially if you’re flying long haul. Cheers

[@RoryDing]

Hi Pete, Turkish Airlines mainly uses its A321neo for routes to Europe, the Middle East, and Central Asia. The flight time is normally no more than 6 hours, so legroom wasn't an issue on my 3-hour flight from Istanbul to Helsinki. It's actually a much better product than what other European airlines are offering in their narrow-body business class. 😊

[@chenwong1036]

I also flew Finnair business class. It's not that bad but you can't sit straight up. The seat is already reclined a bit and not comfortable to my preference. Service is well. I guess the promotion and bargains is because of the detour of Finnair flights from Helsinki to Asia with avoiding Russian and Ukrain airspace. The travel is about 1,5 hr additional of the detour. The longer duration distracts flying with Finnair despite the good service and compared to other flights that are able to fly directly or without detour (like Emirates).

[@wee-senchoo7025]

The Qantas Finnair product turns out to be a hybrid and it's completely different from the experience.

[@nate2611]

He still hasn't replied, best to stop watching his video's.

[@alexmcwhirter6611]

Thanks for a video with masses of detail. Perhaps the most important thing not mentioned Rory is that AY cannot overfly Russia. Hence its schedules from HEL to Asia are not competitive as they used to be and especially for NE Asia. Hence AY has economic problems and has been making cutbacks. You were fortunate in J class but in Y class, on some long routes, only *one meal* is complimentary. If you want a second light meal you now have to pay for it. Also cutbacks with the AY loyalty scheme, lounge catering/drinks etc.

[@RoryDing]

Thank you for the info! I agree that Finnair has made a lot of cutbacks on their services, especially in economy. I'm glad they have refurbished their cabins, though, and hopefully, when it all ends, they will bounce back again!

[@alexmcwhirter6611]

@@RoryDing Indeed. In 1988 it was AY who was the first European/Nordic airline to gain the rights to overfly USSR and Mongolia to China. And AY's Asian network changed forever. Pre-pandemic iAY offered the shortest flights Europe to NE Asia. If you compare its current Asian network to the one pre-Covid you will see what I mean ... AY served so many points in China and Japan. SAS gained the same rights a few months after AY and I was on the inaugural SAS flight CPH-PEK in November 1988. Whether AY will bounce back is a moot point. We shall have to wait until after the Ukraine conflict is resolved. Would Russia be willing to grant overflying rights now that Finland and Sweden are about to join Nato ? So as you can see politics influences how some long-haul airlines can operate.

Great review, fun to watch. I tried to book a ticket with Finnair's new business class HEL-AMS and checked that it was indeed the new refurbished cabin. When I got to the airport, the aircraft we were supposed to fly on had some problem so they swapped it into another A330 which still had the old BC from I think 2009. Was a bit dissapointed but atleast I got to experience the old one before it dissapears completely :)

[@hamswakii]

Great video, thank you! Just a couple of notes--not sure if someone beat me to it. Layover at HEL is probably faster when you transfer from a Non-Schengen flight to another Non-Schengen flight because you are technically not entering Finland/the Schengen zone. Some itineraries offered between European feeder flights and Finnair's intercontinental flights only have a 45 min layover, and I would NOT want to choose them--having to go through passport control & dash ~20 min mad dash to the gate (if you have a gate with a low number at HEL). Also, apparently the Schengen (European flights) zone Finnair lounge is like a zoo = far behind in quality compared to the one you went to. We had a long-haul flight with Finnair in Biz in July, and I was not impressed with the seat. Could not sleep properly.

[@DJ99777]

[@johniii8147]

It's shame that Finnair doesn't offer First Class. As a free agent who does not have loyalty to any airline alliances and instead just fly paid F/J on airlines I want to fly, I would be disappointed not to get access to their Platinum Wing. In theory, if they had an actual First Class cabin, passengers flying First Class would get access to the Platinum Wing.
