Finnair's main non-Schengen lounge for business-class and oneworld status flyers.

About this lounge

The Finnair Business Lounge is the airline's main lounge on Helsinki's non-Schengen side, serving its long-haul and non-Schengen departures — the heart of Finnair's Europe-to-Asia network. It welcomes Finnair and oneworld business-class passengers along with eligible status holders, and it's also where Finnair Plus Gold members and business-class flyers go since the adjacent Platinum Wing is reserved for the top tier. As the workhorse lounge for premium passengers heading long-haul out of Helsinki, it covers the essentials well: a buffet, a bar, Wi-Fi, power and a mix of seating for relaxing or working before the flight.
