AMAZING American Business Class Deals To Europe

already DEAD

@ eyesonthepoints -- Still works for me...

You bloggers are late to the party on this one - been around for a while

You lost me at "American" and "amazing".

Doesn't work out of DCA/IAD.

@ben sorry... it is still working, just checked the Boston route just now. but website keeps loading super slow. Everyone is probably on it. I was trying to see if LAX or SFO had anything as i am in California. Doesnt look like it. ill keep trying.

Why would anyone fly with an airline that offers such appalling service?

Hi Ben,
I've been reading some reviews about AA Business Class recently. You might want to check them out. /s

Do you need to stay in the hotel for the deal to work?

Lucky, do we have to check in at the hotel if we have no intention of staying there? Thanks

Do you get miles on these bookings?

Just got back from Paris last week. Flew American business class round trip from JFK and found the service, the plane(777-200 B/E seats), the Flagship lounge and the on-time performance to be great. Would not hesitate to do it again-especially at these prices. I would be fine with premium economy for these prices.

I would rather pay more money to a European carrier that fly AA with their inferior product.

Nothing amazing about American....

Would not even fly them for free. They need to get that staff attitude fixed first.

@ Ben -- If you want to go to Europe, this is an excellent deal, but Qsuites US-DOH-SE Asia for $2,000 - $2,500 is a much more efficient and comfortable way to attain status. Those fares will return I'm sure. It seems we get that deal once a year or so.

Gene, sometimes people want to actually go somewhere, and aren't flying for status

I've been doing this for a few years now. Usually United or AA Vacations. I save TONS on the fare for Business. United allows you to only book 1 night at a hotel. Sometimes that can save a hundred or so. And you do not need to stay at the hotel. It's paid for and you just forfeit the hotel portion to the hotel. You get bonus miles for booking through the vacation site, however you don't get dollar spend or PQM.

@ NF -- I think I said that...

Wish there was a toggle for turning off any AA-related posts for those of us happily rid of them. Only half joking.

One day: American is hot garbage.
Next day: zOMG look at these hot deals on amazing American!

Two people definitely don't need to be traveling, though its slightly cheaper as the hotel cost gets split.

I'm getting "Forbidden. You don't have permission to access this server" right after I click the search button. Tried incognito, same result. Any advice?

SAN to LHR for 1 week and 3 nites in a 3 star dump was over $4000 per person in Business
What a greaaaaaat deal

@Andy - according to the article the deal is to Paris. I need SAN-anything in Europe and then continue to my final destination. I'll consider LAX-Europe as well if I can get RT for ~$1K pp

@Lucky and others,

Dealt still in effect, CDG and FCO seem to be the best destinations.
I just booked LAX-DFW-FCO (I) RT $1300
As @David H said, you can select a subset of days to be hotel dates. In my case I booked 8/16-8/29, with hotel in Rome only 8/18-8/21.

@David H
Not sure about accrual, but AA vacations says:
" How many AAdvantage miles will I earn by booking my vacation package online?

You will earn 1000 AAdvantage bonus miles for every booking made online at AAVacations.com when providing a valid AAdvantage number at time of booking. You will also earn miles for flights that are booked as part of a vacation package."

I’m getting “Forbidden. You don’t have permission to access this server” right after I click the search button as happened to Alex. Seems like their website is akin to their on board service.

Ditto - I also got the "Forbidden - you do not have access to this server as well" Any help here?

Any success? Tried replicating example above and gotten forbidden error. Some city pairs (jfk, lax, bos and fco, cdg) showing forbidden error. Other city pairs pricing at what seems to be the expected (read: expensive) level.

Two people need to be traveling? I’m happily a party of one. Why are single people often penalized in the travel industry? Single supplements is why I have no interest in going on cruises.

Can you credit to AS?

Meanwhile, you can fly coach for $3xx.

Thanks for the deals Lucky, something I feel is sometimes missing from this site, I also like when you tell us the BA FIRST and Business Class deals.

Your title says Europe, yet you only list Paris. You do know one is a city and the other is a continent, yes? Isn't it ofd that titles are only more precise when delay with USA locations.

This article demonstrates why AA doesn’t need to improve their service as general public only cares about prices. Lol. When AA doesn’t get bookings for their business class even at rock bottom prices, then they will actually up their service game.

I got "Forbidden
You don't have permission to access this server" using the sample destination and date. Why?

I got the forbidden error in safari but was successful in chrome. However I can’t seem to find any dates with that pricing.

West coast to CDG (LAX/SFO/SEA) generates Forbidden error. Tried LAX-WAW and price in J Class comes in at an amazing $3,000 USD / pp

@Jack: I got "Forbidden" as well (Chrome) for anything into LHR, but not for LGW. Strange. The server is apparently returning the wrong error code for "no availibility".

Lucky's exact search above gets "Forbidden...".

The said, the deal seems to be sold out. Nothing below $3500 midweek in late April. I can build my own plane for that.
