Finnair Business Class To Europe, 2 Seats |
| Finnair offers one of the best business class experiences between the U.S. and Europe. However, finding award availability for more than one seat can be tricky as most partners only get access to one seat.
Fortunately, there are Cathay and Finnair allow allow you to book two seats. Additionally, you could book one seat with another program then the second with Cathay or Finnair!
There’s more space on the return, but the big highlight is the amount of space out of LAX. So, if you’re on the west coast, stop reading and start booking!
Now, let’s get into it! |

| Flight Experience
Finnair's business class is arranged in a 1-2-1 layout and the seats are different than you'll find on any other airline. The seats don't recline. Instead, the padding lines the shell of the seat so you can sit or recline against it as you might a couch.
I've always found the crews to be friendly and helpful. While I wouldn't say the food isn’t top tier for business class, it's more than good enough. If anything, Finnair is known for its glassware. So, some champagne or one of their signature cocktails.
