With Finnair you get access to their amazing customer support /s
And that price probably only includes carry on.
Finnair – the worst rated flight company.
Twice?
The blueberry juice is not cheap
For awesome customer support.
Probably the way the codeshare revenue split works out.
Blue paint is more expensive than red paint.
I bet Finnair staff receive double or even triple the salary compared to Turkish Airlines employees. Finnair crew members are frequently on strike to demand better pay, even if their current salaries are already quite high. They just expect their salary to increase every year. I believe that this year alone, hundreds of thousands of Finnair flights have been canceled because of these strikes.
Also, they have to pay higher taxes in Finland.
Because that price doesn’t include luggage nor seat selection. If it did you’d pay 3 or 4 times more.
You have to pay extra for not get to canceled flight.
2 reasons: airline tickets are dynamic and they keep changing all the time, and Turkish is one of the cheaper flagcarriers anyway.
Because they think they can sell those ticket on that price point. Via different sales channels and by having different customer base.
They also might have sold most of their quota on that codeshare flight.
Because Finnair thinks it’s way better than it actually is. I would love to fly Finnair because, you know Finland, but I’m not going essentially donate money to them for no reason.
Unless you get a crazy deal, don’t fly Finnair. Simple as that.
because they want to keep their reputation of worst European airline company
My bad. Pardon.
They think they earn most money with that ticket price. Is it true though, hard to say when we don’t know the actual passenger data.
Finns have this tendency to believe in Finnair and see it as a 100% safe choice. If someone asks me when the last time was that a Turkish Airlines plane went down, I don’t know. A lot of people will probably think ”I am not sure, but probably a year ago?”. When asked the same thing about Finnair most people will say ”never. Finnair has never had a crash (that I know of)”. So for Finns the trust is massively skewed in favour of Finnar – with or without good reason. Might be that Turkish is much safer. I don’t know.
Also, a lot of people see Finnair as a ”proper” company and not one of those cheap airlines like Ryanair and Norwegian. So we pay a bit of a premium for ”better service” (which is highly debatable these days).
Also demand-based pricing, so if a lot of tickets are sold on that flight, the remaining ones are more expensive. They have an algorithm that calculates all this.
Because they can.
I’d recommend avoiding finnair at all costs until they drop prices. You’ll be just as safe and just as comfortable (probably) flying with Turkish
That’s how it goes for codeshare flights. It’s almost always much more expensive from non-operating carriers (unless there’s a joint venture involved). Finnair is basically just acting as an intermediate travel agent for Turkish here, and adding their cut in the process.
It doesn’t make sense to buy that *unless* you are connecting from a Finnair flight, or have some kind of contract or regulatory requirement or incentive to buy from Finnair.
Try to buy Finnair flights to Barcelona or Madrid, from Iberia or to London from BA, and compare the prices from Finnair’s own.
C-suite need their bonuses.
Life is hard for them you know ^/s
Turkish flight to Istanbul was best I’ve had inside Europe.
Great food (for the flight duration), lots of drinks, and movies.
Finnair has had none of these, except blueberry juice.
That happens all over and all the time. For example if you fly Finnair to Dallas, ALWAYS check the code shares with American Airlines and British Airways. And with other airlines definitely check their code share partners. It’s not just Finnair in other words. It’s all a ridiculous ruse, but the same seat on the same plane has wildly different pricing a.
