Want to know what Finnair's new pod seat is like? With no recline mechanism, a pod shape and wireless charging it's definitely different to any other seat I've flown in.
I travelled from Doha to Helsinki to LA to join my family for my youngest son's 21st birthday celebrations and I did the trip on Finnair business class in the new pod seat. Did I love it? Who was in business class with me? Let me show you.

I can definitely see Kimi being a consultant for these Pods for Finnair…… “Just leave me alone.”

Every Kym Illman travel vlog has to have a "I've just realised" moment 😄

@KymIllman 11 месяцев назад

So true!

@tompsu9536 11 месяцев назад

Really excited for this, its my home airline, sadly you didn’t have time to visit the lounge in Helsinki since it has a sauna. Ps. Great video as always Kym, keep up the great work!

@vojtechnovacek7776 11 месяцев назад

Damn, a sauna on a layover sounds fun

@1bluensx 11 месяцев назад

It made me smile seeing you meet up with your family in LA! I’m so happy for you and your success that you get to travel the world watching F1 and enjoying your passions. It is incomprehensible to know hard you work for your channel. People who watch these videos might not realize how hard it is to edit all these videos, and take so many pictures. I swear your day must be a 48 hour day. Keep up the amazing work! One of these days I’ll meet you. I missed you in Singapore twice now, Austin, and Budapest….oh well.

@ramadolman6735 11 месяцев назад

The cocoon would be very interesting to try 😮 The timeline is also a great idea, wish every airline did it. Finn air is one of the top rated for a reason

@elqniemi 11 месяцев назад

I've been waiting for this vid since you posted the travel plan video for the year! Flying AMS-HEL consistently with Finnair so unfortunately haven't experienced this seat yet

@matthieucorley517 11 месяцев назад

Kym, I flew this exact route in June and also stayed at the Viceroy - talk about deja vu! Also contemplating starting a travel channel... maybe this is a sign? Copy the best and go from there..! Another top video :)

@KymIllman 11 месяцев назад

Have fun!

@ronak4489 11 месяцев назад

Your videos always bring a smile to my face. Such a nice chilled positive vibe.

@tiinah5602 11 месяцев назад

So fun to see you using Finnair, it’s the airline I mainly use as a Finn myself! Though I won’t be trying the business class for a long while, too much for my budget lol. Make sure to visit Helsinki some day if you use Finnair again!

@MichaelG1986 11 месяцев назад

The Finnair glassware is really iconic. I might need to order some.

@tiadaid 11 месяцев назад

I don't travel on business, but if I do I don't think I could be comfortable in that Finnair chair. I like a bit of recline to sleep to alleviate my sleep apnea.

@rickc8432 11 месяцев назад

Hi Kym, I took your advise and checked out your Finnair video. Amazing, man you know how to travel! I so enjoy your fantastic videos, love the "deez nuts" comment, laughed my a#$ off! Why are you going to Vegas now? Austin, Mexico and Brazil first? Keep the vids going! Love it! Rick

@charlescampion9898 11 месяцев назад

Thanks Kym. Just toying with booking Finnair from Stockholm to Doha; so great to see it really is that good. Then onwards to Adelaide in a Qsuite, if the diary and budget allow. Love your travel videos and even thos about F1, about which I know zilch !

@mikrokupu 11 месяцев назад

Btw this winter season you can get Finnair all the way to SYD Australia 😉 Their A3300 + crew operate SIN/BKK - SYD flights for Qantas

@vrccb 11 месяцев назад

F1 is the very thing missing from your life. Start by watching the driver's vlogs. Very funny especially the Ferrari Goggles challenge and the McLaren Milk Challenge. Get to know the drivers and Teams and the rest will follow. You need some fun! x

@bobateacuber7646 11 месяцев назад

Almost definitely not, considering there’s Brazil and Mexico internationally, plus Austin, while not too far plane wise, is very far from daytrippable

@danm4320 11 месяцев назад

By the looks of it he got invited to tour the F1 Vegas track to show everyone the progress being made and to spend some time with the family. No doubt he'll be catching a flight to texas soon

@clausstimpfig3803 11 месяцев назад

thnx. Finnair is not a good airline anymore. They do not serve champagne in Europe anymore. They do not offer an international first class cabin anymore. The featured meal here was average. Nothing fancy. OK its only businessclass. Vid was excellent though

I for one like the comfy feel and the ability to cross your legs and sit... it's perfect seat for asian people...

@diamonddave2622 11 месяцев назад

I've just flown back from ICN to HEL. I was in 3L too. Going out, I had a similar last minute transfer experience. I was caught up in the industrial action by ground staff. my bag wasn't transferred and we couldn't deplane for nearly an hour, nearly missed my connection, they held the flight for me and I was the last to walk on. Alas no luggage in Korea though...

@watson956 11 месяцев назад

What an itinerary: Doha - Helsinki - LAX, on the way to San Antonio!!?? Understandable when we saw the special guests at the end, of course!

As a relatively new subscriber and made keen F1 fan (thanks to Drive to survive).. I love your videos !.. entertaining… interesting.. love the behind the scenes of F1 you show… especially love your flight and hotel reviews … and your naturally funny 😆… from a fellow Aussie… thank you ❤

@philipbarnard2474 11 месяцев назад

@tractorback76 10 месяцев назад

I booked about 3 flights in "first class" on us domestic flights and they were pretty basic compared to these crazy pods and beds. Completely envious of this lifestyle. Although i could see it getting a bit stale once youve done it a few times.

@valydobos6485 11 месяцев назад

Don’t film in business or first class. If you want to film go to economy.

@elevat1on 11 месяцев назад

As someone who struggles to sleep on planes, even in business class, I'm curious: What kind of sleeping tablets do you use? I have zopiclone myself, but I rarely use them.
