The Finnair Lounges (Gates 22 and 50A-M) provide a relaxing space adorned with classic Finnish design pieces. You can find more Northern elegance in the SAS Lounge (Gate 13).
The Aspire Lounge (Gate 27, upstairs) comes with birdsong that is sure to transport you back to nature.
In the Almost@Home Lounge, you can kick back as if you were in your living room already (Gate 32), whereas the Kainuu Lounge is a 24/7, forest-inspired free space available to all passengers (Gate 31).
