The new TV commercial is featuring a little panda bear traveling on Finnair's blue-and-white wings from Helsinki-Vantaa airport to New York, on to Paris and from there via the Helsinki Gateway to Asia and the beautiful river scenery of China. At the end, the film reveals that the whole adventure was actually the dream of the little toy panda sitting on the shelf in a child's room. When the panda wakes up, he gazes out at the starry night sky and sees a Finnair plane among the stars -- as he probably does each night.

The new TV commercial combines the fairy-tale imagery of the previous corporate image TV commercial, "The reindeer and the star", with the real world.




This is achieved by presenting Finnair's extensive route network and its Business class, featuring the new lie-flat seats, along with the sympathetic main character, the panda. The focus of the film is on Asia because of its strategic importance for Finnair's business operations. That is also the reason for choosing a panda as the hero of the film.


The TV spot was produced in Finland.

  • finnair... u pay for a safe & pleasent ride to ur destination and back... thats what i do and its perfect if ure a cheap ass then get the fuck off this airline isnt for u.

  • These plane videos certainly attract these silly arguments for some reason.

    Europe vs USA= Boeing VS Airbus

    Finland vs Sweden=Finnair vs SAS

  • Glad they served Panda cheese in Finnair or the crew would not have seen daylight again.

  • @Greenapplehill

    Maybe you should check out the facts before talking any more bullshit.

    Finnair has sometimes really good prices to Europe. But if you are booking your flight just the day before departure, you can expect the prices to be high. Your own stupidity.

    For example I flew to Malaga from Helsinki last fall and I paid 250€ for flights operated by finnair and hotel for one week.

    People who go by boats are not interested of Sweden but just the boat ride it self. All can afford to fly.

  • cute :)

  • Who dislike this commercial is GAY.

  • @LegoAir

    That is not true. Finnair does not have good prices to Europe.

    I've never heard a single person that has taken finnair down to the continent.

    The reason why people are forced is due to that Finnair is one of the only airlines flying between Sweden and Finland.

    Well, which entertainment? The cruises are directed for another group of interest, people that go to Turku or Helsinki and switch boat and go back. Now I'm talking about people that have to take the flight to ex. Vasa.

  • @Greenapplehill Well, partly true. Finnair has good prices to Asia and europe though. and finns go to sweden by boat because of the entertainment... and the ship lol. :)
