Travel Business Class to Paris, Milan, or Nice for $2,000 Round-Trip

Is there anything better than flying to Paris, Nice, or Milan? Absolutely—flying there in business class! For a limited time, just in time for the gift-giving season, French airline La Compagnie is offering round-trip fares starting at $2,000 for its all-business flights to these stunning cities in France and Italy.

The 'Blue Friday' sale, named after La Compagnie's signature baby-blue aircraft, starts on Friday, November 17, and runs until Tuesday, November 21, 2023. The travel period extends into next spring, with the deal available on select flights from December 1, 2023, to May 31, 2024, without specific holiday blackout dates, subject to availability.

Founded in 2014, boutique airline La Compagnie provides all-business-class flights from Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR) to Paris Orly Airport, as well as services to Milan Malpensa Airport and seasonal routes to Nice Côte d’Azur International Airport.

These flights utilize single-aisle Airbus A321neos, featuring 76 lie-flat business-class seats. La Compagnie fares include two checked bags per traveler, along with access to airport lounges before the flight.

Inside, the seating is arranged in two rows of two with dividers between adjacent seats. Each seat comes with large screens showing a selection of French and American films, and passengers receive a pillow, a light comforter, over-the-ear headphones, and an amenity kit containing socks, an eye mask, and Caudalie toiletries. Complimentary Wi-Fi is also available during the flight.

Inflight meals are curated from menus crafted by French and Italian chefs, paired with a choice of wines and champagnes, bien sûr.

In 2021, we reviewed the entire flying experience with La Compagnie for those interested in understanding this distinctive service model.

One major downside to this promotion is that the tickets are nonrefundable.
