The verdict, explained

At 21x13.5x9", the U.S. Traveler Rio Expandable fits inside Finnair's 21.6x15.7x9.0" carry-on allowance, right at the limit. It should slide into the overhead bin without trouble at the gate sizer. On Finnair: Economy Light includes a cabin bag (8kg total). It is too large for Finnair's under-seat personal-item space, so it has to go overhead or be checked.
