Blue1, Finnish airline and member of the SAS Group
has added a second daily flight to Helsinki from
London Heathrow.

The new London Heathrow flight enables business travellers to utilise a full working day in Helsinki with convenient departure and return times.

In addition to Blue1's nonstop flights, they offer 12 daily connections with SAS via Scandinavia. The introduction of the new flight will also mean great connections to other Finnish cities such as Oulu and Kuopio. When travelling to Scandinavia or Finland on business why not book SAS's unique premium economy class service, Economy Extra.

Economy Extra is a new way of travelling for business passengers, providing business class check-in facilities and fully flexible fares with no restrictions. Economy Extra passengers are seated in a dedicated area between the Business and Economy sections, receive a complimentary meal with drinks and can earn extra frequent flyer points.

Take advantage of their Economy Extra special promotion until 10 Dec 2010.

In addition to the above benefits, they are also offering access to SAS Lounges and Fast Track security at Heathrow and Helsinki during this period.

SAS Business Lounge and Fast Track security at Helsinki Airport - terminal 1

A completely remodelled SAS Business Lounge opened its doors recently in a new location at Helsinki-Vantaa Airport. The lounge is now situated in Terminal 1, a strategic spot close to all gates frequented by Blue1, SAS and other Star Alliance member airlines.

Another new feature will be a separate Fast Track security check for Blue1 and SAS Business passengers. SAS and Blue1 also recently moved to Terminal 1 at Helsinki airport. The compact sized terminal will mean all facilities and functions will be nearby, transferring to connecting flights will be easier and likewise luggage handling will be made more efficient.
