A therapy giraffe. The world’s shortest escalator. And in-flight sauna.

Finnair introduces an in-flight sauna
In a press release, Finnair announced it’s latest innovation: the world’s first in-flight sauna, available only on the carrier’s Airbus A350 aircraft.
Finnair does have a Finnish sauna in the Finnair Platinum Wing lounge on the non-Schengen side of Helsinki Airport. But the April 1 announcement of an onboard version is a joke that we’re sure had some passengers wishing “if only!”
The “Sky Sauna” package does sound pretty good: it includes “a refreshing glass of blueberry juice, a vihta (a traditional birch whisk), a sauna hat, a towel and comfortable slippers” and a sauna designed with beautiful Finnish wood and featuring a panoramic window for breathtaking views.”
If only, right?
