Fully owned by Finnair, Norra (Nordic Regional Airlines) is a Finnish regional airline that began its operation back in 2011 as Flybe Nordic. Since 1 May 2015, Norra has been operating under Finnair's flight code. Also, quite a number of the fleet have been painted with Finnair's livery.

All my BFF and I had to do was to go down the stairs from the bustling Finnair Lounge to reach Gate 22.

Both the Economy Class and Business Class cabins have exactly the same seats with a seating configuration of 2-2, but they are separated by a curtain.

Comfortable seat pitch!

Including both of us, there were only three passengers in the Business Class cabin. The amiable flight attendant brought us English newspaper as soon as we settled down on our seats.

With approximately 188,000 lakes, Finland is known as the Land of a Thousand Lakes.

Following a quick safety demonstration by the cabin crew that didn't say anything about the use of life jackets at all, we departed from Vantaa Airport on time.

I bade farewell to Finland, but I was going to come back in two weeks' time.

A hot towel was given to each of us before breakfast was served, which you can read about here. I certainly drank lots of bilberry juice within a span of 24 hours.

Main course: Potato Boat with Chicken

I didn't feel the need to go to the lavatory. Once I finished reading the in-flight magazine, we started our descent to Warsaw Chopin Airport in Poland.

The aircraft parked next to that belonging to LOT Polish Airlines.

We only waited for a minute or two at the baggage reclaim area before spotting our luggage.
