Finnair promotes self-service check-in options

Finnair has encouraged people who will be travelling with the airline during the Easter period to make their trip easier by using the carrier's online check-in option or a self-service kiosk at the airport.

The company pointed out that these time-saving procedures can make the travel experience much smoother and less stressful for consumers at busy times of the year.

People catching domestic and international flights from Heathrow Airport or Manchester Airport with Finnair can make use of the airline's self-service check-in kiosks, which are also available from European destinations such as Amsterdam, Brussels and Paris.

Those returning from Helsinki Vantaa Airport can use the automated kiosks in the second terminal, which are available to passengers with hold luggage as well as carry-on items.

Finnair spokesman Markku Remes said: "We recommend that passengers use Finnair's internet or text message check-in services or the self-service check-in kiosks at the airport. This can speeds things up significantly."

As well as providing access to Finland and Scandinavia, the airline allows people travelling from the UK to connect to flights to Beijing, Hong Kong and other long-haul destinations.
