Services in Business Class

When you fly Finnair’s Business Class, you get more out of your trip at the airport, on the plane, and at your destination. You’ll find a short introduction to Finnair’s services for business class travelers on this website.

Before the flight:

Business class ticket types are flexible according to your schedules. They enable last minute changes and cancellations, and there are often vacant seats at short notice, too.

You can check-in according to your preference, either in person at the check-in desk (at Helsinki airport there is a dedicated check-in for business class travelers), in the lounge (if you are traveling only with hand baggage), by SMS while in your taxi to the airport, or online at your hotel. If your flight is delayed, you’ll be notified by SMS.

As a business class traveler, you are allowed to take up to 10 kg more checked baggage, and, in addition to hand baggage, your briefcase or laptop can be taken into the cabin.

The lounges are at your disposal at the international gate areas of all Finnair’s scheduled flight destinations. There you will find newspapers and magazines, beverages and snacks, and office equipment and communication connections for your convenience.

During the flight

Finnair’s intercontinental meals and wines have been awarded several international prizes, for example from the Chaîne des Rôtisseurs, International Food, Wine and Travel Writers’ Association, Decanter wine magazine, and Business Traveller magazine.

During intercontinental flights, you can sleep peacefully on the latest lie-flat seat. While awake, entertainment is provided by a personal entertainment system and a wide selection of international newspapers and magazines.

After the flight

Your luggage, labeled with a priority tag, will appear first from the hold – great for when you are on a tight schedule to make your meeting. When necessary, you can check your meeting location on the Internet before leaving the airport, as you have access to the lounges when waiting for a connecting flight or after your flight.
