REVIEW – Finnair : Premium Lounge and Business Lounge – Helsinki Airport

There are two business class lounges but only one can be accessed by passengers that hold a Business Class ticket but no frequent flyer status. The better of the two lounges, the Premium lounge, is only available to pax connecting on a First Class ticket or OneWorld Emerald status holders.

REVIEW – Finnair : Business Class – Helsinki to London (A350)

I'm still not convinced that I'd want to fly this for an ultra long haul, as the seats are a little more cramped than on the CX, AA, AF etc equivalents. For a flight to the East Coast of the US this would be more than adequate.

REVIEW – British Airways : Club Europe (Business Class) – Oslo to London Heathrow (A320)

There is a definite sense here when flying in intra-European business class, I'm being asked to tell the Emperor how lovely his clothes are. If we all play along we can pretend this is ok. Honestly though it isn't. If you are flying long haul and end up in a short haul Business Class cabin, that's fine. However, if you are looking to splash out in order to try Business Class one time, short haul will leave you deeply underwhelmed.
