Urrrghhh… one of these again…

Even though pyjamas aren’t really necessary for the daytime flight to Bangkok, a flight attendant did offer them around.​

​

Why must the author decide for others what they do and don’t need?

(It would be better if expressed as a personal opinion, that the author doesn’t feel the need for PJs on a day flight. Although if you’re napping anyway, what's the difference between a day and night flight, PJ wise?)

It’s like another travel blogging sites that announce ‘you don’t need a flat bed for a daytime flight. Airlines and the market would disagree!

PJs/loungewear keep your clothes fresh, stop them getting crumpled, and stop your clothes getting food spills on them.

And despite being unnecessary the author still clearly accepted them per the picture.

I love Finnair generally but not a huge fan of a non-reclining business class seat, especially for a day flight.

This restricts how you read or watch a movie, and the screen is not adjustable either. Agree the mattress pad simply does not fit - why Qantas could not 'lease' the pads for the actual seat I do not know - also the Finnair pillows are bigger than the Qantas ones from memory, so this may also mean it is more comfortable overall when flying actual AY rather then the QF leased AY...

Perfect timing, thanks @Mattg - I'm doing this flight next week. Overnight BKK then onto HEL on AY proper.

I thought I would take a few squares of velcro with sticky sides, to pin the ill-fitting Qantas mattress to the seat. Do you think that would be any use?

I see you had that little strut in the footwell - I think row 2s don't have that - will see in a week.
