Fly the Best For Less
Emirates Airways—the top airline in the world, according to TripAdvisor—will fly you from New York to Athens for only $599 round-trip or Milan for just $649 round-trip. Even better are the business-class fares: $2,829 for Athens or $2,929 for Milan—in case you want to have an in-flight martini with Jennifer Aniston. The sale, which also includes great fares to Dubai and Mumbai, officially ends on June 22, but we should be able to get Skylark members similar fares beyond that date.
Upgrades to Asia
Singapore Airlines is offering free one-cabin upgrades on a bunch of its flights, including JFK to Frankfurt and Singapore; LAX to Tokyo, Seoul and Singapore; and San Francisco to Singapore. So book in economy, fly premium economy (which gets you priority check-in and comfier seats), or book in premium economy and get bumped up to business class. Free upgrades from business to first are just on the JFK flights. We can only book these flights offline, so reach out if you’re interested.
Long Haul For a Lot Less
On Air New Zealand, flights from the U.S. to New Zealand and Australia are as much as 28% off, in both premium economy and business. These fares are only valid through September 30, so if you’re thinking about doing a long-haul trip this summer and want more legroom for less money, pounce. They’re also discounting their LAX-London flights by a similar amount.
God Bless American

- Barcelona from New York
- Milan from New York
- Paris from New York Boston, Chicago or Los Angeles
