Bei Finnair hat man bei den Kunden den Rotstift angesetzt …
Im März hat Finnair beim Catering ein Cost Cutting durchgeführt. Das hat scheinbar nicht gereicht. Mit Juni verschlechtert man die Gepäckregeln, streicht die Sitzplatzreservierung beim Check-in und kürzt bei Finnair Plus.
Finnair informiert über reduzierte Gepäckregeln und keine Sitzplatzreservierung bei Check-in:
„This is what changes on 1 June 2023:
The Superlight ticket replaces Economy Light on journeys within Europe. This applies to new tickets purchased as of 1 June. The Superlight ticket includes one small bag (40cm x 30cm x 15cm) that is placed under the seat and nothing extra. You can purchase a bigger carry-on bag (55cm x 40cm x 23cm) as a travel extra.
The baggage allowance for Business Class travellers for both European and long-haul journeys decreases. The Business Light ticket includes one small bag and one carry-on bag, while Business Classic and Flex tickets also include one checked bag.
All special baggage, such as golf bags, skis, or heavy bags, are to be purchased as travel extras. This means that you can have only standard-size and -weight bags as part of your checked baggage allowance.
In connection with the overall baggage allowance changes, there will be some changes to the baggage-related Finnair Plus tier benefits.
At the same time as the baggage-related changes, we are making changes to the seat selection practices. With a Superlight, Light, or Classic ticket, you can choose your preferred seat by purchasing it in advance, and if you do not wish to do that, we will choose a seat for you. This means that complimentary seat selection is no longer available during check-in for these tickets. Finnair Plus members continue to have their current advance seat reservation benefit.
The changes that come into force as of 1 June also support Finnair’s strategy implementation through more effective operations, punctual departures at airports, and developing the offering of travel extras.“

Solche Veränderungen kann man schon machen. Man kann als Airline alles ausprobieren. Man darf halt dann nicht über die Konkurrenz oder über abwandernde Kunden weinen.
