A couple of days ago, SWISS Airbus A220-100 visited HEL to introduce the aircraft to Finnair. In September 2016, the larger A220-300 visited HEL for the same purpose. As Lentoposti says, A220 could replace the current fleet operated by Norra. Actually i thought that this would be the only viable op...

Jump to postI've flown with SAS more than 250 times in my life (I'm 23) and I've never had a single safety or emergency landing. Why do you fly that much? Does SAS still offer cheap standby fares for young people? Or are you just rich? ;) Most people I know fly only once a year on holiday. At the age of 25 i h...

Jump to postNordea (or banks in general) and "advancing customer experience" sound a bit contradictory.

For me one of the noisiest aircraft ive been on was AY's A333 LTO and LTN to ICN. Those GE CF6s are damn noisy and as one person wrote, the cabin materials do rattle. However we do have to take into consideration that we were flying against 100km/h winds. The 747s for me are a quiet and happy place....
