| broonie: Me too. Womble2: KLM will fly you from Edinburgh to Helsinki via Schiphol for about £200. Gatwick is good for me, Heathrow isn't too bad. Stansted is a little more stressful, but more than doable. - JD mhy: I'll be going; travelling from Newcastle as usual. I'll have to check how much cheaper flying via London is. jcm: Looking like Helsinki but I won't book this until nearer the time. Are we actually going to organise a group out of Heathrow? == Flights == '''Sledge''': for people in the SE of England, I think Heathrow direct is probably best. At the moment, [http://www.expedia.co.uk Expedia] lists the following BA flights that might be of interest. Looks like BA and Finnair are code-sharing, and BA are mostly cheaper for any given flight combo, so I'm only listing the BA flight numbers. All times are '''LOCAL''', i.e. BST and BST + 2. I'm ignoring flights via Prague that save GBP 3 but add over 2 hours on the journey time. Costs for these flights seem to be ~GBP 165 for a cheap flight (evening flight from Heathrow, morning back from HEL), or ~GBP 190 for other options. '''Noodles''': I'm tempted to go for a flight from Norwich - it's via Amsterdam and costs £40 more, but saves me travelling all the way to Heathrow. There's a 16:30->22:30 on Fri 8th and a 06:40->09:30 on Monday 18th. And it's 10 minutes or so to the airport from home. ;) It's close enough in timings to the BA798 that I could still meet people at Helsinki airport for onward travel though. === Flights out === ||'''Flight no'''||'''Depart LHR''' ||'''Arrive HEL'''|| ||Friday 8th || ||BA 794 || 12:20 || 17:15 || ||BA 6080 || 16:10 || 21:05 || ||BA 798 || 18:00 || 22:55 || ||Saturday 9th || ||BA 6036 || 07:30 || 12:25 || ||BA 794 || 12:20 || 17:15 || ||BA 798 || 18:00 || 22:55 || ||Sunday 10th || ||BA 6032 || 10:20 || 15:15 || ||BA 6080 || 16:10 || 21:05 || === Flights back === ||'''Flight no'''||'''Depart HEL''' ||'''Arrive LHR'''|| ||Sunday 17th || ||BA 795 || 07:40 || 09:00 || ||BA 6037 || 11:25 || 12:35 || ||BA 799 || 18:15 || 19:25 || ||BA 6035 || 19:30 || 20:40 || ||Monday 18th || ||BA 795 || 07:40 || 09:00 || ||BA 799 || 18:15 || 19:25 || ||BA 6035 || 19:30 || 20:40 || ||Tuseday 19th || ||BA 795 || 07:40 || 09:00 || ||BA 799 || 18:15 || 19:25 || |

I'm inclined to take the quick and simple route, though going via Tallinn and spending an extra day there is looking somewhat tempting now.
moray: I'm planning to go, but will be travelling from Edinburgh - though it looks like flying via London may be sensible. broonie: Me too.
Womble2: KLM will fly you from Edinburgh to Helsinki via Schiphol for about £200.
Gatwick is good for me, Heathrow isn't too bad. Stansted is a little more stressful, but more than doable. - JD
mhy: I'll be going; travelling from Newcastle as usual. I'll have to check how much cheaper flying via London is.
jcm: Looking like Helsinki but I won't book this until nearer the time. Are we actually going to organise a group out of Heathrow?

Looks like BA and Finnair are code-sharing, and BA are mostly cheaper for any given flight combo, so I'm only listing the BA flight numbers. All times are LOCAL, i.e. BST and BST + 2.

It's close enough in timings to the BA798 that I could still meet people at Helsinki airport for onward travel though.
