HOT FARE: From $528 for Air France PREMIUM ECONOMY US – Istanbul Roundtrip

The Flight Deal scoops a deal about Air France premium economy for under $600 roundtrip.

Premium economy can often be thought of as similar to domestic first class, so a real step up from coach, and for less than the price of coach.

This should be a $2500 – $3000 roundtrip ticket. And yet I don’t think it’s a mistake, it appears to be focused on United hubs.

Washington Dulles and Chicago are available from $528, Houston and other United hubs are reportedly available for a little bit more.

  • Take your outbound flight between March 28th and May 15th or between August 24 and October 25.
  • Travel outbound Sunday through Wednesday
  • Return Monday through Thursday
  • 3 day advance purchase required

You can earn full redeemable miles with Delta or Alaska on this fare.

This should be bookable on Orbitz or Expedia. Here’s a sample itinerary from Chicago:

And here’s the fare breakdown, you’ll see it’s $123 roundtrip plus taxes and fuel surcharges.

  1. I’m not familiar with Air France’s program, so pardon my ignorance, but any chance these are upgradeable? Also, does AF allow for stopovers on this fare

  2. Damn.

    I plan my vacations so far in advance that I can never take advantage of good overseas deals.
