Hello everyone. I was able to grab a killer deal of 35,000 miles redeemed to go from Seattle through Helsinki to Prague on FinnAir for my Rick Steve’s central Europe trip next year. Has anybody taken FinnAir before? I read great reviews on the airport transition, but I just need to make sure I don’t have any issues getting from Seattle to Prague to start my tour . Thx

There was just a post last week about it. I shared my experience (domestic within Scandinavia).

Well, with flights, you get no guarantees. But I’ve flown Finn Air a number of times and it’s been good. Good service, my flights have been timely, and the planes feel newer and not as cramped.

Finnair is just fine, no worries.
Helsinki is a bit nicer of an airport to connect in; less likelihood of massive lines
or crowds.
Booking this far ahead of time, you would be wise to periodically review your
itinerary for changes.
Without going into details, it's definitely true that booking on Finnair with miles
rewards the early birds.
