we are flying end of august from hong kong to paris with finnair(ff award flight)via helsinki.arrive in helsinki at 15.05 hrs,change to a different finnair flight and leave for paris at 16.05 hrs. is there enough time including for luggage to find its way to the next flight .does anybody have any experience with this route?

I dont know the minimum connection time at HEL but I'd expect it to be significantly less than 1 hour. HEL is a small hub, and if MUC, FRA, ZRH, etc can manage minimum connection times of 20 minutes (MUC) to 45 minutes (FRA) then HEL should manage 1 hour easily.

thanks kiwi flyer for the reassurance

Hi there

I flew AY fom LHR to SIN via HEL in june and originally my connection was 35 mins which i think maybe the MCT at HEL, but as i wanted to sample the AY lounge offering's ( not great, but you can smoke in them) and also step outside for some fresh air i got it changed to a 2h30 connection.

Enjoy your flight on AY

Cheers
