There are plenty of rest areas in the airport, with chairs along the way! Additionally, the airport is decorated with Christmas trees, enhancing the festive atmosphere of Finland and making visitors feel immersed in the holiday spirit! One of the most design-centric spots is Spacehub, where you can book rooms for rest or work. You can see a small white house inside the airport! Very unique!

Finland in autumn is a crisp and coldish time. It can get a bit wet but it's still nice to walk around in the forest and catch the last few bits of warmish weather before the cold winter sets in. Feel the crunch of fallen leaves under your feet as you breathe in cool fresh air! If the weather is nice then you're in for a treat as the golden leaves are brightly lit up with the pretty sunlight! Head for a walk through Finland's many wooded areas during autumn! #fallingforfall #explore #forest #walks #helsinki #finland

Today, I would like to recommend a spa in the city that is the airport area of ​​Vantaa, Finland, which is "Flamingo Spa" located at Tasetie 8,01510 Vantaa Finland🇫🇮 - Flamingo Spa is a spa with 3 spa pools, 1 of which is a warm pool and the other 2 are massage pools. There are 3 sauna rooms, separated for men and women. Another room is a salt sauna for shared use. This is the Finnish culture of going into the sauna and soaking in the cold water, like melting ice. It is believed that this will improve blood circulation. - In the spa, there is a bar where you can order snacks like French fries, fried sausages, fried chicken, etc. You can also order drinks from the bar in the spa to drink while soaking in the warm pool. It is very relaxing. - The price of the spa service on weekdays, Monday-Friday, is 29 euros per person, approximately 1,044 Thai baht. On Saturday-Sunday, it is 39 euros, approximately 1,404 baht. #EuropeTour

I have a bunch of colleagues who have introduced me to this hobby some four years ago. Wall climbing is both fun and also excellent way to take care of the body and mind. If you’re in the area of Helsinki Airport, you may want to try KiipeilyAreena in Tammisto, Vantaa. It’s located within walking distance from most airport hotels or can easily be accessed using a bus. The address is Tammiston kauppatie 10, it’s in the other end of a huge Plantagen Flower shop. You don’t need any equipment to try and there are suitable walls for every skill level. Admission for one person is 12 euros (2022). If you are a member, you can also use the gym located in the same premises. In addition there is a small climbing equipment store and a cafeteria. #finland #vantaa #climbing #bouldering

The Clarion hotel is a lovely hotel that's only a 5 mins taxi ride, 5 mins train ride or 20 min walk from Helsinki airport. The hotel is hip and modern and the rooms are cozy and many feature great views. It's very quiet around the area so dining options are limited. However the hotel also boasts a nice gym, and a comfortable sauna. Breakfast is also included and it is in a buffet style with many options to choose from. Overall a great choice for being close to the airport or even to get to town as the train is very practical and frequent and the hotel is right above the train station. #hotel #travel #finland #helsinki #explore

If you find yourself connecting through Helsinki airport, you're in a for a treat. The airport is home to Finnair, but countless other carriers also serve it. The Schengen area is more of the traditional styled airports however the non Schengen side is the real gem. Usually airports are dull and you can't wait to get out of them. However, Helsinki airport was a joy to be in, even for 5 hours. First, the airport is spacious, modern and clean. Second, there are countless amenities catered to different tastes. For instance, there are different chairs: from rocking chairs to flat bed like seats. There is also drinking water available throughout the terminal. One of my favorites, however are the giant screens that show different scenes and sounds from Finland's nature. This coupled with outside the normal rush hours offers a very calm and quiet stay at this airport. All in all, a smooth and calming experience; something that airports are not always known for. #airport #helsinki

Helsinki is quite a bike friendly city. There are numerous bike paths that run into and out of the city. In fact I'd you have time and are up for the challenge, you can even bike from Helsinki airport to the city center. Let me warn you: it is quite challenging! Nonetheless, the whole journey is done on bike paths, so it's extremely safe. It's simply quite long; around 20 km and a good 2+ hrs. Along the way, however, you pass through some lovely Finnish landscapes that are so relaxing and calming. You'll see flower fields and rivers, which add some variety to your journey. These are really pretty and relaxing to enjoy especially in summer. You really get a sense of Finland as you also pass through several residential areas and parks. I recommend doing this trek in summer when it's nice outside and the weather is warmer. Remember however to bring a windbreaker in case and plenty of water. You can stop and enjoy the lovely scenes on the way so resting isn't an issue. You'll be able to enjoy nature while getting into the city in an economical, healthy and non polluting way.

The gap in the airport transit is the time to eat, eat and buy. Uncompromising food can also find high-quality Nordic cuisine here, such as this FLY INN at Gate Helsinki Airport No. 27.

I'll introduce the places I wanted to go to in Finland! After watching the movie Kamome Diner, which is set in Helsinki, I felt a warmth in the mix of different cultures and the little happinesses! ☺️ I decided that I definitely wanted to go to Kamome Diner! The ramen and the char siu rice bowl were so delicious💕💕 It was so delicious that I thought it would be delicious even in Japan! The atmosphere of the restaurant was relaxed and there were many message notebooks written by visitors, so the waiting time wasn't boring☺️✨ Another thing I wanted to do in Finland was to go to a smoke sauna! ! I went to Kuusijärvi Sauna, which is located at the entrance to SIPOONKORPI National Park and is rich in nature✨ The sauna is cute and built like a lodge🌳 There are professional level saunas and gentler saunas, and I didn't know anything about it (I found out later) I accidentally went into the professional level one, and in an instant I felt like I was being smoked and all my moisture was taken away! I immediately jumped out of the water because of the heat and ran into the lake🤣🤣 I was in a hurry during my trip so I couldn't relax, but it was a place where you could spend a whole day relaxing✨ I recommend checking the location and type of sauna at the entrance It's unisex so don't forget to bring your swimsuit! #EuropeExplorer @#Finland

Transfer in Helsinki! There was quite a bit of time for the transfer, so it took about 6 hours? To downtown Helsinki! About 30 minutes by bus from the airport. Since time is limited on a transit trip, you should decide on a minimum target in advance! In my case, my goals were to shop at Marimekko, have a snack at a cafe, stop by a supermarket, and stop by a Moomin shop! All of this can be done around Helsinki Central Station! Even if I want to eat cinnamon rolls at a cafe, I research the shops in advance! For food restaurants, I usually have a backup plan! ← This is important! When I achieve my goal, I feel a sense of accomplishment...😂 Please give it a try! #transittourism #howtoenjoytransit #moomin #marimekko #helsinki #cinnamonroll #helsinkicentralstation

💞Reasons to Recommend: right in the terminal airport for a short stay this hotel has no windows but the rooms are exceptional with clean showers and very large TVs. the reception is called a barception and opened 24h with a convenience store.

Traveling from Finland to Hengaria #historicallandmarks

This airport is located about 15km north of Helsinki, the capital of Finland. It is known as a hub airport connecting various parts of Europe and Asia, and I used it to transfer on a Finnair flight. The terminal building is compact, and transfers can be made in as little as 35 minutes. Transfer information signs and announcements are also in Japanese, making for a smooth transfer. If you use it on your return journey to Japan, there is no security check on your baggage when leaving the Schengen area. In addition to the usual duty-free shops, there are also Finnish-only Moomin shops, Iittala, Marimekko, and other shops, making it a great place to buy souvenirs. #EuropeTravel #EuropeTourism #Finland #Finnair #finnair #HelsinkiAirport

[Access with Oneworld Sapphire] It is located at the top of the stairs near gate 20 in the Schengen area of ​​Helsinki-Vantaa Airport. This time I entered with Oneworld Sapphire status. It is less crowded than the non-Schengen lounges, so it is convenient when you want to use it quickly. [Compact but tasteful] Simple design based on white. There are no large windows, but the soft indirect lighting creates a calm atmosphere. The number of seats is moderate, so there is always a moderate amount of space. [Light self-service buffet] The menu is mainly light, such as bread, yogurt, fruit, and salad. Each dish is of high quality and is enough for a short break. The coffee machine is also professional, so you can enjoy a cappuccino or cafe latte quickly. [Full range of drinks] In addition to soft drinks, beer and wine are also self-service and easy to use. There is also Nordic craft beer, so you can experience a little "local feeling". [Simple workspace available] There is a small work counter at the back of the lounge, equipped with power outlets and Wi-Fi. You can easily check emails or work on documents. [Ideal for short transits] Perfect for a quick stopover between trips within Schengen. This lounge is more for a "quick break and snack" than a long stay. #Let's go abroad #finnairlounge #Helsinki airport #inside Schengen #lounge review #airportlounge #Nordic lounge #travelhack #finnair #Finnair #Helsinki #helsinki #helsinkiairport #oneworld #Europe travel #finland #Finland

If you're a Moomin fan, you should definitely stop by! We'll introduce you to the popular specialty store "Moomin Shop" that has a lot of products that you can't buy in Japan! ⭐️Review A Moomin specialty store that Moomin fans will love! I saw several stores in Helsinki, and they are all in good locations, so I think they're easy for tourists to stop by. The store is packed with Moomin goods, including clothes, stuffed animals, coffee, postcards, and more, all with Moomin designs! There seem to be a lot of Japanese people there, and I heard Japanese being spoken in the store. I bought some Moomin tea, and many of them had unique flavors that were delicious! It's a store you'll want to stop by at least once to commemorate your trip.

#Spring0yentrip #Boardingreport #Finland JAL and Finnair (Finland's national airline) jointly operate direct flights from Narita Airport🫧 When I booked, the Finnair flight was cheaper, but the price did not include checked baggage, and if I wanted to check in baggage, I had to pay an additional fee👀 On the other hand, the JAL flight was more expensive than Finnair, but the price included checked baggage up to 30kg, so I booked with the JAL flight😄 I booked through Trip.com and it cost about 150,000 yen round trip🌼 There were two in-flight meals on both the outbound and return flights, which were relatively simple but looked like lunch packs and had cute Marimekko napkins🥺🤍 Alcohol is OK for drinks, but the blueberry juice is delicious🫐🌿
