Finnair (AY) fleet and travel rules

Finnair online check-in generally opens 36 hours before departure; for direct Helsinki–US flights, it opens 24 hours before departure and closes 75 minutes before departure. Airport check-in and Bag Drop generally open at least 2 hours before departure, and boarding gates typically close around 15 minutes before departure. Check-in times may vary by airport and partner-operated flight.

Finnair Check-in rules

Finnair passengers may bring at least one carry-on bag and small personal item, while checked baggage allowances depend on the fare. Checked bags are generally limited to 23 kg and 90 × 75 × 45 cm in Economy and Premium Economy. In Business Class, the limit is 23 kg on short-haul flights and 32 kg on long-haul flights, with the same maximum dimensions.

Finnair Baggage rules

Finnair requires the UM service for children aged 5–11 traveling alone. The service must be booked through Finnair customer service or a travel agency and is available on eligible same-day connecting Finnair flights. Children aged 5–11 may travel without UM service when accompanied by an eligible older family member or adult.

Unaccompanied minors in Finnair

You can travel with an infant on all Finnair flights if the baby is two days old. A child ticket costs 10% of an adult Finnair ticket. An infant does not have its seat on board. If you want to buy a seat for your infant (child under two years of age), the price of the ticket, in this case, corresponds to a child ticket with a child discount.

Finnair Infants policy

Finnair accepts trained assistance dogs subject to advance approval and required documentation. Passengers must notify Finnair at least 48 hours before departure and provide the dog’s breed, size, and required documents when submitting the request.
