Finnair Plc Press release Finnair opened a fast lane for its frequent flyers and business class passengers
Finnair's terminal move at Helsinki-Vantaa has proceeded according to plan.
Finnair and other oneworld alliance companies now use terminal T2 instead of
the old terminal T1, and this has enabled the opening of new services for
business passengers.
A Priority Lane check-in area was opened on Tuesday, 1 December at
Helsinki-Vantaa terminal T2 in the check-in area 219-222. In connection with
the new check-in area, a new Priority security check line was opened, allowing
faster progress through security check at peak times in the morning and
evening.
The Priority fast security check line is open Monday-Friday 6-9 a.m. and
2.30-5.30 p.m. and on Sundays 2.30-5.30 p.m. At other times, the normal
security check lines will be in use.
The Priority Lane service area can be used by business class customers flying
with an AY flight number and by Finnair Plus Platinum/Gold/Silver and oneworld
Emerald/Sapphire/Ruby cardholders irrespective of travel class.
Finnair offers its customers the most comprehensive services facilitating and
accelerating business travel in Finland. The service offering already includes
automatic text message check-in and a full internet check-in service 36 hours
before departure.
The next advance for business travelers is the opening of the Via Lounge and
Via Spa service area at Helsinki-Vantaa on 11 December for transit customers
and those flying outside the Schengen area. Via Spa is will be open 10 a.m.-10
p.m. with its four different saunas, versatile shower facilities, pools and
treatments that can be reserved in advance.
Priority Lane services were opened at Stockholm Arlanda in the new terminal T5
for Finnair and oneworld companies on Tuesday, 24 November.
