Fantastic Air France First Class Fares From The US To Europe!
The timing of this is funny, since I'll be publishing my review of Air France's new 777-300ER La Premiere product tomorrow (hint: it's one of the best first classes in the world).
Not only is it a great product, but unfortunately it's very tough to snag a seat in it. There's no way to redeem partner airline miles for the product, and the only way to redeem Air France-KLM FlyingBlue miles is if you're an elite member in the program, and if you're willing to book the "flex award." That's 200,000 FlyingBlue miles one-way in first class between the US and Europe. I value Membership Rewards points at ~1.7 cents each, so the real "cost" of such a redemption is ~$3,400, not including taxes and carrier imposed surcharges. Ouch.
Well, zoqfotpik shares on FlyerTalk some incredible Air France first class fares that are presently available from the US to Spain (zoqfotpik rocks -- he also shared the amazing Easter Island LATAM business class fare yesterday, which I booked).
