Fearless flyers laughed in the face of superstition when they boarded the last ever Flight 666 to HEL on Friday the 13th.

Travelling on the “unluckiest day of the year” could save you some pounds, but a journey straight to HEL on the 13th hour of the superstitious date is one flight most would probably like to avoid.

Nordic airline Finnair has flown brave passengers from Copenhagen, Denmark, to Helsinki, Finland, on Friday the 13th since 2006.

However, it is the last time Flight 666 will fly to Hel, as the airline has decided to retire the flight number.

“Today will actually be the final time that our AY666 flight flies to HEL,” a spokesperson for the airline said.
