Are you referring to the NEW Finnair Platinum Wing?
No chance, that's one of the top OW lounge in Europe!
I also wish to go in to enjoy Finnish sauna.
Just kidding~~

For the also new PPL in Helsinki, it is located in non-Schengen departure.
I think you can't go in while taking Finnair transiting to European countries, only can access while leaving Finland.
Usually the banks will sign new agreement with PPL for 1 year (Jan-Dec), of course there is always chance for PPL to throw in new lounges for the banks.
Just wait till Jan (sometimes Feb / Mar) and bank will update us.
There is also a worst case scenario where bank cut away PPL benefit or limited to local lounge only tongue.gif

although will transit there
but transit time 24 hours
so will go to town and come back
and leaving flight is located in terminal 2 non-Schengen area

let's see whether any surprise from Ambank

Yup, agree.
Yea, transit there last year.
Purposely opt for long transit hour to go Helsinki (city).
Morning arrived, evening departed.
I think it is sufficient for me to cover the distance by foot.
*
any good recommendation in Helsinki?
your arrival also 12am? got rest in hotel or straight go jalan city?
thinking how to kill the time until 5-6am hmm.gif

If have the opportunity, I would personally prefer to visit a city even for a short while rather than sitting in a lounge. I mean, no matter how good a lounge is, it's just comfy seats, food and drinks only right?
*
Agree
But lounge access is for before boarding
Like I can have dinner in lounge around 8-10pm and board at 11pm (flight at 11.55pm)
For arrival is 12.05am, doubt have transport to city nor anything to do between 12.05am to 6am
so would probably stay at airport or find a hotel for few hours nap

QUOTE(charlesj @ Dec 12 2019, 06:31 PM)
I see, that's why you are asking for lounge access.
I flew from SIN, arrived early morning, spent ~2 hrs in airport before going out.
If not mistaken, there are plenty nice seats in the airport.
Of course if given such opportunity, but it depends on transit time.
It is not feasible with only 4-5 hours to go out for certain cities.
Unless you have at least 6-8 hours only good to go outside.
*
I purposely choose the return flight with 24 hours transit time
so can go out city without taking care big luggage
and have a day trip in city

Entered PPL at Heathrow. The food not bad, serving Thai curry and vegetable curry. But it costs 20 pounds to shower. Quite expensive water... by they way how much our local PPL charge for shower?
*
which lounge did you entered?

QUOTE(Cookie101 @ Dec 22 2019, 05:31 AM)
Which one you’ve entered?

Both T2 and T3 arrivals can barely fit 20 people. Only have less than 10 tables.

Been flying in an out Heathrow and the staffs refuse to allow multiple different cards access.

Only acceptable decent size is T2 departures.

If using LoungeKey or PP, they don’t check tickets
*
Have you tried T3 arrivals?
Are there check ticket?
For arrival can enter? or must be departure from heathrow only can use?

Doesn’t matter departure or arrival. Both can enter. And yes. They check for tickets. (When I use LoungeKey they don’t check- they swipe right away)

Enter PPL arrival lounge. The one outside the arrival hall, which u literally have to exit the building on the left.  😂
*
Ticket is from Heathrow fly to other countries only?
If I arrive from other countries can I use the used ticket/boarding pass to enter?

As long the ticket is valid for the day. I’ve tried on arrival. (Ie: ticket from Copenhagen to Heathrow).  But my colleague on departure went to same lounge to meet me seems to be ok.

For departure lounge they will be after security checks.

Great
thanks for the info, I can save time and $ for my flight from Helsinki to Heathrow, which no meal is provided inflight

For my case they only waived RM500 for me. Sigh should have insisted.

When I called them last Dec ask for waiver
I asked I’m wondering whether you are kind enough to waive my this year AF again for PM?
The cs checked and said yes
Done
Simple and smooth
