    Is there free Wi-Fi on VR trains in Finland?

    Internet on Finnish trains.

    Answered at: Checked at:

    Short answer

    VR says Wi-Fi on its trains is free and the upgraded network, called VR-wifi, is up to five times faster than the previous one. A coverage map is on VR's website. For night trains, VR advises downloading films and other entertainment in advance, because the connection can sometimes be too weak for streaming. VR suggests the Ekstra Calm class seats and Eko class compartments for working on board.
