Deal alert: Two-for-one business class to Europe on La Compagnie

If you’ve been looking for a romantic escape, you’re going to want to check out this sweetheart of a deal from La Compagnie: A Valentine’s Day sale with two-for-one flights from New York to France and Italy.

And honestly, this sweet deal is on my radar for travel well beyond February. As long as you purchase flights by Feb. 14, you can fly through the end of the year. So this would be a great excuse to take a mom on a Mother’s Day escape to Paris, grab a friend for a beach getaway in Nice or even purchase a few deals for the family and head to Milan for a pasta-filled Thanksgiving.

Best of all, since La Compagnie is the world’s only all-business-class airline, you’ll be enjoying total comfort and lounge access with this deal, too.

Deal basics

Airline: La Compagnie

Routes: Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR) to Paris-Orly Airport (ORY), Nice Cote d’Azur Airport (NCE) or Milan Malpensa Airport (MXP)
