One of the things I was most happy that we did while in Belgium was to buy charging adapters, and I…read morewas never more happy about it then when we would get to the airport and only find European plugs. Make sure before you travel within the nordic countries to buy an adapter, because even though there are a ton of charging stations at this airport, they aren't USBC, so after a long day of travel you'd be out of luck unless you have one. This Helsinki airport was fairly small but had quite a few wonderful shops like Moomin and Christmas stores and TSA was an absolute breeze with no luggage, which was great because we were running a bit behind. All in all, it was a fairly nice airport and we had a great experience with it.

We checked into a hotel at the airport the day before we flew home and wandered over to see if we could find something to eat. They have a food court and it includes a surprisingly good size grocery store. We grabbed some dinner and did a little shopping at the store for some snacks for the room. The airport itself is well laid out. It was easy to find customs and our gate. Another nice thing is their rideshare (Uber) area is marked very well and easy to find.

There are a couple very deep escalators to go down into the train station. Payment is made via the app. There are also payment islands in the middle of the train station.

The train into the city is 4,3 Euros with no airport surcharge unlike other cities and takes 38 minutes to get into the city centre.

Yummy Ice Cream On The Transit Route…read more SITREP On a hot hot day in mid-July, what a Thor-invoking surprise and Valkyrie-inspired blessing it was to find some delicious COLD treats here!

The ferry terminal was on what felt liked the edge of Helsinki but was brand new. On the Tallinn side the terminal was a 15 minute walk from the Old Town. The journey takes around two hours each way. On the way out we traveled on STAR and for the return we were on the much newer MegaStar which was probably the best ferry I have ever been on (there isn't much competition). They even had some exclusive Moomin products, which made the wife happy. I would definitely use this service again.

Our private lounge was smallish and crowded and the tables and chairs were arranged in groups just as in a restaurant. I had expected a comfortable lounge chair- maybe like a business class airline seat but these chairs were like cafeteria chairs. There were some complimentary snacks but pretty ordinary: crackers, tea and coffee, veggies with a dip for more healthful fare. That was about it. None of it tempted me for a second. As for the prospect of sitting in the cafeteria-style chairs for two hours, I eventually abandoned this lounge and found a more comfortable location in another part of the ship. Skip Comfort Class is my advice.
