About Finnair (from Wikipedia):
Finnair (Finnish: Finnair Oyj, Swedish: Finnair Abp) is the flag carrier and largest airline of Finland, with its headquarters in Vantaa on the grounds of Helsinki Airport, its hub. Finnair and its subsidiaries dominate both domestic and international air travel in Finland. Its major shareholder is the government of Finland, which owns 55.9% of its shares (as of 2014). Finnair is a member of the Oneworld airline alliance. Finnair is the sixth oldest airline in continuous operation and is consistently listed as one of the safest in the world.
About Airbus A330 (from Wikipedia):
The Airbus A330 is a wide-body aircraft developed and produced by Airbus. Airbus conceived several derivatives of the A300, its first airliner from the mid-1970s. Then the company began development on the A330 twinjet in parallel with the A340 quadjet and launched both designs with their first orders in June 1987. The A330-300, the first variant, took its maiden flight in November 1992 and entered service with Air Inter in January 1994. The slightly shorter A330-200 variant followed in 1998.
The A330 shares its airframe with the early A340 variants, but having two main landing gear legs instead of three, lower weights, and slightly different lengths. Both airliners have fly-by-wire controls as well as a similar glass cockpit to increase the commonality. The A330 was Airbus's first airliner to offer a choice of three engines: the General Electric CF6, Pratt & Whitney PW4000, or the Rolls-Royce Trent 700. The A330-300 has a range of 11,750 km or 6,350 nmi with 277 passengers, while the shorter A330-200 can cover 13,450 km or 7,250 nmi with 247 passengers. Other variants include the A330-200F dedicated freighter, the A330 MRTT military tanker, and the ACJ330 corporate jet. The A330 MRTT was proposed as the EADS/Northrop Grumman KC-45 for the US Air Force's KC-X competition, but lost to the Boeing KC-46 in appeal after an initial win.

Actually, it’s 20:24, might as well save it for next year 😂
Just curious, why did you say "touched down on our condemned..."?
I say "touched down and are condemned to a bus gate"😂
@@NonstopDan 😯Ah! Thanks for the clarification. 🙂
@@NonstopDan i think your flight was flying over my House lol
Hi Dan! Thank you for the great review and welcome back anytime! ✈
Omg, thank YOU guys for a great new product! How about we organize a giveaway to share this experience with one of my viewers?😉🙏
@@NonstopDan Agreed :)
@@NonstopDan thank you for the genuinely helpful and informative content you create. Always a joy to see constructive creators out there 👍
Finnair i never flew any European airline but u look so underrated
We booked flights Belgium to Thailand next year with Finnair based on this review.
Innovative seat, great mocktails, delicious vegan meals (and not 2 servings of the same items), AND scented hot towels?!? How’d they ever get Dan to disembark? Great review!
Plus Great Nuts
Nobody likes vegans or their food
Mans been reviewing for years and became the top g of airline reviews
🙏
@@NonstopDan any ways your voice over style was adopted by me in my videos
@@NonstopDan Top D… wait
top g... sounds eerily familiar 🫣
Top D 😂
There are so many airline reviews on CZcams but the reason I watch nonstop Dan is because his videos are fun and he also does a comprehensive review. He shows everything, The seat, The lounge or catering
I like this and the fact that they are serene and calming
Helsinki airport is easily one of the best airports I've been to. I love their luggage/security scanning machines. Everything is so smooth. And, on the other hand, we have Stockholm Arlanda :D
Thank you for informative and beautiful review. Finnair is my go-to airline and the fact that it's from my country, it makes me a proud Finn. I can't wait to try the new cabin 🇫🇮💙
I appreciate the lovely ( piano) music that fits so well with the amazing photos from the plane windows! Thank you Dan for a gentle, not overpowering sound track!
I love Finnair, don’t mind at all flying business class from Singapore to any city in Europe. interior is soothing, service is good, food is refreshingly good. Lounge is relaxing. Cheaper than SQ. The most underrated airline.
Hey Dan! I'm probably your newest subscriber, and am LOVING your channel. I'm also a pilot, so this is an absolute kick, and your delivery is spot on, clear, crisp, and such a pleasure to the ears! Cheers!!
Thank you for another great review. Had seen some others, but was waiting to see what you had to say! Excited to see something different and new
I can only confirm this. I’ve flown this business class a few times now and the seat is amazing and super comfy. Top notch!
Great video Dan. Love the editing and the great detail. I have seen other Finnair videos but learned a lot of new things..
Great video Dan. I am really liking the style of videos you are producing at the moment! the best airline reviews out there in my opinion.
I have flown this seat from LHR to HEL , but will try it long halu for the first time at the end of Jan as it is doing the HEL - SIN route. Looking forward to it very much. Unfortuanlety I think the Platinum wing is not open during my layover :(
Thats another great video Dan, thanks a lot for sharing. I love your passion and how respectful you are. And yes, Finnair looks really amazing.
This is such an amazing video. Really impressed with the quality.
This past summer I intentionally took Finnair to try this seat as well, was amazing. I built a couple day layover in to explore Helsinki and bring home some blueberry juice! Love Finnair!
Dan - you are letting out my little secret. From Australia, Finnair has always been the best value business class to Europe from Australia (code share with oneworld carrier via hkg, sin, bkk). It gives such easy access to locations in Europe, yes with an addition stop but the connection the in HEL is quick it’s really not a problem. Please don’t tell anyone else!!! Love your work
Hehehe sorry😂
I'm stealing this for my return leg, haha.
you are 100% right- always take finnair via tokyo to europe from australia. No complaints!
And now you can fly from Sydney to Europe with only Finnair.
that seat is really stunning. it solves so many problems and if as you say its comfy i am absolutly sold on the non recliner seat. and there is a costumized to the seat matraze! how amazing is that.
I love new Finnair Business class! Thanks for another great video. You are such a pleasure to watch😊
Oskar and and yourself are such fun to watch and alway have great information. From a guy in Sydney thanks for the videos and keeping us entertained.
Thank you, really good to see. Am keen to try this seat and you have affirmed this.
Flew this on A350 from Sin-Hel, loved it and can totally agree with Dan's review. Comfort was great, crew too. Food was also delicious.
Hello from Dublin Ireland 🇮🇪. Just want say how much I enjoy your videos Dan.Keep up the good work.
These are always so fun to watch Dan. Always an escape to watch your great videos. Thanks!
I finally subscribed because your inserting that Kennedy Davenport clip
made me laugh out loud sitting in the AmEx Centurion lounge @ JFK. Thanks for that! And for your right-on-the-money reviews, which ive been watching for years.
I see you changing your style. It feels like a TV show instead of a vlog/review . Love it!!
Cant wait. Taking the whole family LHR>HEL>ICN and back shortly, quite excited about this new cabin. Looks fantastic.
Dude, you rocked it. Great review!!!
I flew in this recently and I loved it. So much space and a full bed. I prefer this over reclining seats as I can sit however I like and again, a full bed! It’s like your own cocoon
Great video and review as usual. The food looked great.
You can try Finnair's Airlounge business seat on short haul routes too. They have daily widebodies on HEL-LHR route, plus in the coming summer season their HEL-AMS only gets widebodies. But you just need the check the seat maps carefully, their widebody fleet still has 3 different types of cabins.
Yeah I flown that route twice and last time it was back to old Euro style business with economy seats just no one in the middle although the flight was not very busy. First time it was a proper business seat
Keep it up, Dan. Great content as always. Can’t wait for you to get to 1M
Adore your reviews! We have had our route ARN - DOHA in february changed to Finnar BC instead og Qatar, now I really looked forward to trying Finnair!! However, i am not surprised by your views. The fins are great at doing things properly and well!
That ATR montage with the piano music was …. *CHEFS KISS*
As always great to see you,Happy New Year to you both. For someone whose first solo flight was in the 60s AND got to fly Concord on a few occasions, I have to say if I am going to be doing any distance flying,you've completely sold me on this amazing looking experience. Until next time, very best wishes to you both💥👊👏👏👏👌👋⭐'s💯✌💙💙
Love your editing style
Another great video Dan. Have been intrigued by this seat since it's unveiling and I'm glad to hear it lives up to the hype. Also did anyone else notice the foot in the cabin shot at 16:41
Thanks and omg, I just saw that😳
This a the best video you`ve done 💘
Thanks!
what an incredible video and airline experience, absolutely astonishing / greetings from Sweden
Great video/review. I'm intrigued by these new business class seats and definitely want to try them out. I presume the length from head to toe is similar to reclinging business class seats. Seems to me FinnAir have thought how can we add to passenger experience (a far cry from other airlines who seem to think "what can we take away from passenger experience, still charge as much and get away with it?").
Thanks for an amazing review. Heard alot of finnair products, but actually seeing & witnessing an experience takes it to the next level. Will definitely give it a go next round. Also thx for the Qatar tips
Ur one of my favourite airline reviewers, thank you for the amazing reviews
Thank you for this video, i think i'm going to book this for my first visit to Europe (going to Sweden yaay).
An absolutely wonderful review, glad to have found your channel and being a fellow plant based eater & non-drinker (don't know if you are one but it seemed like it) makes it all even better. Thanks for the amazing review 🤗
So glad my videos are useful to you - and yay for plant-based eating🙏
Agree. Def my favourite too. Riding under the radar too. Under estimated among general public.
Dan, I'm off to Helsinki and the Baltic's in September and you KNOW what airline I'm flying. So looking forward to it!
I think I saw you early morning in Haneda today, too shy to say hi but was really good to see you it was like a celebrity encounter!! :) have a safe trip Dan I wanted to say thanks for all you do.
“Ready for the disappointing parts?” Very funny. It’s a relief in life to hear there are no disappointments!
Dan, Really enjoyed this video, this has convinced me to book my next long hall flight in Business Class with Finnair starting from London to connect via Helsinki, and will be to Singapore. Thanks.
Great video, keep it up 🕊️🇬🇧
I was really skeptical about the non-reclining but impressed that it does actually turn into a "bed"! I really love how cozy it looks with all the dark fabric. Almost looks like the night sky. Great video, as always!
What a World Class product and overall experience.
Great content as always.
Keep it up.
Great video, keep it up 🕊️🙌
Beautiful product; can’t wait to try it.
Well done on 600k plus subs, now it's the road to a milli
Hi, Dan! Finnair has one of my favorite seats but I never got a chance ti fly on their new biz class! You should try to fly on the SAS inaugural flight to newark from gothenburg, your home town! Stay safe, Dan!
Dan, you make me want to go on this flight just to try the phone. Looks like you really enjoyed it. Thank you for sharing this video.
That Saatana Perkele was awesome! It's warmer now in Helsinki, +2. Safe travels!
Wow! This business class is absolutely amazing!
Great review! I just flew in this seat type (3L) from Stockholm to Doha and I was mightily impressed, after having been skeptical about it as well. Also agree with everything you said about the service and food quality. I wish Finnair flew to Australia!!
Well you can fly Helsinki-Singapore with Finnair and Singapore-Sydney with Qantas. Warning, the Qantas plane feels so outdated.
Well, now you can fly Finnair (or at least Finnair planes) all the way down under as Finnair will start operating some Qantas flights under a wet lease agreement.
Dude, you crack me up! Seriously do like your show(s)/reviews you produce. Video production is top notch. Sound, lighting, camera angle's, etc. Have a great 2023. Enjoy, D.B.
Thanks Dan, another great video. Finnair is my favourite airline but I was concerned about the new seats. You have given them a good rap. Will be trying them out later this year Singapore to Helsinki.
Hope you get to try the new seats soon!
DAN IS EPIC, my most favorite flight reviewer ever. I want to fly Finnair now. Cheers and happy New Year to you and Oskar.
Aww thank you so much! The same to you🙏
I actually booked a flight with Qatar and got rebooked to Finnair on ARN-DOH and I didn't prebook a seat but I could choose one of the Premium Economy seats without any charge 😁
PS. Dina videos är grymma!
same! i got assigned premium economy on DOH-ARN and the second time where i had to choose it on Finnairs website! such a goooood deal.
Hi Dan always great videos!! Thanks..
I flew these recently from HND-HEL (13hrs) and I have to say it was the best and most comfortable sleep in business I've ever had on any airline. Anyone that knocks them needs to make sure they've tried them first on a long haul before forming an opinion.
I assume this was after the Russian airspace closure to EU airlines?
@@davidcho157913 hours is the new time, yes. The old time was around 9 hours
@@davidcho1579 Finnair still flies to Tokyo, just over North Pole instead of Russia
I got to fly this in August last year and 100% agree it’s one of the best business class products out there. I LOVE the food too.
Nicely photographed Dan x
My favorite reviewer of all time! Good job again and again ❤️
Thanks so much🙏
One of your best! Love your stuff!
I tried this seat last year. I was sceptical before my flight but now I love it. If you treat it like your sofa at home you can find a comfortable position easily enough. Couple it with the quietness of the A350 and I had one of my most comfortable flights.
Sadly, I don’t share the enthusiasm for the Platinum Wing, with its restricted opening hours and very poor service. Nevertheless the furniture is very comfortable and a good place to wait for a plane.
Your voice is so soothing I sometimes fall asleep while watching your videos. I love it.
Not sure it’s good I make you fall asleep, but I’ll take it as a compliment😂🙏
Loved the review, flying Finnair for the first time soon, sadly at the back of the bus, but I will be checking out that lounge thanks to status.
Hope you have a great flight!
Can you please do a video review of the best amenity kits?
Had the new seat on my last flight back to the UK. Loved the new pod 👌🏻👌🏻
The food looked amazing!!! The seat looked pretty nice too (haha)! Great video Dan!
I want to move to Finland now. That snow and cold air looks soooo refreshing!! 😀
Love your flight reviews Dan! Keep up the fantastic work!
Thanks so much Dylan!
Happy 2023. Stay and fly safe. Ciao.
This seems to be a very great product. Would love to try it!
Great video keep it up 🕊️
We are flying to japan on april. im so excited already to try this ❤
Damn! That's the most cool and well degsined plane i ever seen! I love the degsin , very cozy , soft , and cool . Thanks bro for the review👍
In Australia I regularly do 2.5 hour regional flights in a Dash-300 an up to 3.5 hours (with one stop but stay on the plane) on a SAAB 340!
Now that is a very interesting business class seat design!
Great video 😊.
Seriously, this business class exceeds my expectations. this seat could be the trend for other airlines to follow.
Furthermore, the lounge is really top class. Of course cannot compare with Doha, Dubai or Singapore. But this is spacious, looks comfortable, and lots of functions to stays hours inside.
I’ve flown it and overall very good with one caveat - when using it as a bed there are two seat belts and neither is in a particularly great position from my perspective if you use them
I agree about that!
Always enjoy watching the videos, what kind of camera do you use to make your videos please?
Great, inspiring review! And fyi, by far, the best #eyebrows, and most communicative facial expressions in the business. There needs to be a best-of summary section after each review, featuring only Dan's facial expressions... 😆😆😆
Finnair is a really classy operation and I loved the innovation of this new seat. Helsinki is a joy to transit. SAS are very second rate in comparison to Finnair.
Hi Dan, have you flown the man-hel route? I usually fly this round but this year finnair have changed the aircraft its worth reviewing. Helsinki is a beautiful city
Awesome job dan thumbs up I bet you where with oaker on the plane?
You should review Qantas again it has been a long while and I want to see how the first class has changed over the years!
Loved the video Dan. Could you maybe review starlux airlines business class when you will be traveling again?
Amazing review! Can't wait to fly finnair business next week! Curious - why shouldn't we redeem avios points on BA flights?
My only concern are the cushions/pillows. Are they changed every flight? Great review 👏🏻👌🏻
Aren't you the best damn avgeek i watch, i may sound greedy but can you kindly upload much more if you can! Anything that you put out is awesome ☺️👍
Actually just flew this exact route from Copenhagen. Love how sleek it is!
