Finnair inflight drinks

Wine, beer & spirits, are free on standard flights. On "leisure" flights beer costs €2.50, wine is €3.50, shorts €4.00, and sparkling wine €7.00.

All wine in economy comes in 187ml bottles. On 757s the drink selection is very limited due to the poor ammount of space onboard.

Spanish Torres Vina Sol

Spanish nectar

This is a fine vintage. Although the Torres Wines are better known for their reds, this has a chalky melon (Ogen) and good citrus balance.

French La Roche Chardonnay

A Picture of Finnair Wine French full bodied chardonnay

Very much a classic French chardonnay from the Burgundy region, even the label gives the game away that this is wine of the old school.

A stylish and refined Chardonnay, with subtle toasty aromas and a touch of oak. The flavour is nicely balanced with creamy pineapple fruit and a nutty finish. It has a good nose, and a very strong aftertaste. This wine goes well with Finnair's noodles.

Red Wine

Raimat Abadia

From Catalonia, in Spain.

Rich, oaky nose. Full-bodied, strong yet fairly smooth. For lamb, game and aromatic meat dishes, such as the Finnair breakfasts.

Sparkling Wine

A Picture of Sparkling Wine Great stuff

One thing Finnair can do right is its Sparkling wine. This is French Veure du Vernay with a light delicate flavour and very few bubbles - which on a plane is probably a good thing. Highly recomended.

Have it with chicken, and you'll never live to regret it. Not bad for toasting the Northern Lights.

Beer

All beer will be opened for you, unless you ask. Spendrups Export

Spendrups Export

Swedish nectar

What in the UK would be called lager beer. The Spendrups brewery is justly famous in Sweden, and much praised for the light delicate flavour of its beer.

Gron Tuborg

A Picture of Icelandic Beer A good Scandinavian import

Beer comes with a good variety - Gron Tuborg. It comes a long way to get on some of Finnair's flights, but its worth it. All the flavour of Stella, but with less alcohol.

Very tame

Its the usual dull stuff you get on the ground.
