Finnair has launched its Black Friday sale and in contrast to a lot of the other airline sales that we’ve been seeing, this one is definitely worth a closer look. Great deals are available out of at least five European counties (including the UK) and while most of the good Business Class fares center around a handful of cities in Asia, there are good fares available on two of Finnair’s new USA routes too.
Note: As you’ll see towards the bottom of this article, Finnair is also offering double tier points and award miles on all of its Black Friday routes (and not just on the routes discussed here).

Bottom line
For the next 5 days, Finnair is offering some very good Business Class fares for travel between Europe and select cities in Asia and the United States. From what I’ve found so far, the best selection of fares appears to be offered on flights out of Stockholm but considering how expensive premium cabin flights can be out of the UK, the fares out of London look pretty good too.
