For transport to Downtown Helsinki, there are bus and train services from the airport. Taxis also offer a convenient option for getting into town quickly, or you can book one in advance online if you prefer not to queue at the taxi stand. There is an Airport Express Train that departs every 20min on weekdays, with trains departing about once per hour during weekends. The fastest means to get to the city center is by taxi. The taxi takes about 15min to 20min depending on the time of day and traffic.
Taxi stands are located right outside of the Arrivals Hall. A taxi can also be booked by phone or online and will pick you up in front of the terminal building. Other pick-up areas for various transportation means can be found at the right side of the Arrivals Hall.
It’s easy to get your bearings as the terminal is split into two parts: Terminal A and B. Terminal A is used by Finnair and Terminal B is used by other airlines.

One of my suitcases was left in Frankfurt during the layover. The suitcase arrived the next day so, I had to get a cab to drive me for over 200 kilometers to go back to the airport to pickup the suitcase. After I picked up the suitcase and left the airport, I realized that one of the wheels of the suitcase is broken. When I tried to submit a complaint, the system did not allow me to do that because I have to do it at the airport and I have only three days to submit the complaint. Given that I am staying 200 kilometers away from the airport, I am not going to go back again to the airport to submit the complaint about the suitcase. I spent all that money on airline tickets to go to Algeria to be on vacation not to go back and forth for 200 kilometers between where I am staying and the airport.

The flight was half an hour late, which is the new normal in Europe. Friendly crew.
The process of the baggage was pleasantly good but the seat comfort and the food quality was much lower than what we have experienced in year’s past. We consistently fly with Lufthansa but each year ticket costs increase and on oars service quality decreases.
This was a great travel experience. Flight was smooth, crew were great, plane appeared very clean. I always have anxiety about taking off and landing. Both ways were smooth especially Landing. I didn’t realize we had landed, Great job , pilot. I wish boarding was a little more organized, but it went ok. Thank you all.
Not lose my luggage! The snack offered wasn't edible. It tasted like weird processed food. I spit out the one bite I did take.
The flight was delayed for over an hour and a half.
I wanted to change the dates of my flight and was not able to do. Had to cancel it without getting any refund. Bad customer support and worst experience ever.
Canceled flight followed by two rescheduled and a total of 8 hours delayed
Plane was delayed, not even a snack. Yes we had something to drink.
Never had to agree to a change in my flight booking. Very happy with the whole experience.
Staff was great at checkin as well as flight crew. I also appreciate the effort to keep carryon at the intended limit
Process was very smooth at checking in, boarding on/off.
