Would that mean a nightstopper?
Why ?

The current Finnair (op by Flybe Nordic) services are timed precisely to connect over Helsinki with their late afternoon local time Far Eastern departures wave which included the daily JAL 788 to Tokyo within two/three hours maximum transit time.

The evening flight into Manchester reverses the feeders departing west right after the early afternoon Far East arrivals wave completes.

The three hour time difference and flying times actually makes a viable day return business trip to Helsinki pretty pointless through.

The early morning arrival into Manchester has also carried some transit transfers onto/off of the American Chicago flight as well so it not one way traffic !
