Bargain Oct19 half term flights Finnair codeshare with AA

[Babiesmummy]

So been checking flights religiously from Man - Mco 16/10/19 - 02/11/19 & had a google alert come through for flights on a Finnair codeshare with AA via Philadelphia. 2ad 2teens £1002 incl tax, no luggage or seats included but at that fare I had to book it even after adding luggage its well within budget

Thank you so much for posting this . Do you know what the luggage charges are ? The price I’m getting for our dates is £892 . I’ve never done it this way before so it’s all a bit new and a bit daunting . Is the connection Time enough in Philadelphia ? It’s less than 2hrs

It looks like its £45 each bag each way, but because its a codeshare it wont allow me to add baggage or seats onto the reservation. I will give AA a call when i get a chance. My connection is 2hrs 10mins, which should be fine. As its booked on a through ticket it is the airlines responsibilty to get you to your destination, worst case senario is that you are put on the next available flight

Thank you , so through a codeshare is your reservation held through AA so you would get another booking ref from them . Sorry for the questions but as it’s non refundable I’m wary .finnair don’t get great reviews for customer service .
Beyond tempted at the price but don’t want to muck it all up

I have read that Finnair can no longer give an AA locator, something to do with the reservation system. They are all part of the Oneworld alliance incl BA/AA/EI etc, so financially they are ok. Personally I am fine if there customer service isnt the best, as its non changeable / refundable anyway, I dont intend to contact them

We are doing the AA to Philadelphia connection in October too. Ours was booked via BA though. Fingers crossed we have enough time for immigration, 2h15m. We paid £1050 for 2 adults and one child including the flight down from Inverness with luggage.

I used to work in Travel & I am confident in booking it all independently. There are many advantages of booking a package but unfortunately the saving outways the convenience. Make sure you have a good insurance policy, pay with a CC & atleast there is no language barrier if something does go wrong
