The schlep from the West Coast over to Europe is long, so it makes sense that you don’t want to do it in economy. But with business class pricing through the roof, sometimes a better solution is springing for premium economy. With more recline and better legroom, premium economy provides a happy middle ground for those long-haul flights.

Better yet, we’ve found premium economy routes for just $1,100 from the West Coast all the way to Europe.

Let’s take a look!

Fare Deal — Details

If there is a route you’re looking to book, you’ll want to act quickly. We don’t expect this pricing to last.

  • Class: Premium economy
  • Routes: San Francisco (SFO), Seattle (SEA), Phoenix (PHX), and Los Angeles (LAX) to Paris (CDG), Milan (MXP), Berlin (BER), Oslo (OSL)
  • Dates: May to June 2024, September to December 2024
  • Rates: As low as $1,100 round-trip

These flights are operated by Condor, whose premium economy seats feature some of the best legroom and recline around. Even better, both airlines are full-service, which means you’ll be able to take a carry-on as well as check up to 55 pounds of luggage.

The cheapest rates we found were from San Francisco (SFO) to Milan (MXP).

Best Ways To Book

The best way to book these flights is directly via Condor’s website. That’s great news for those who want to maximize the points they’ll earn, since The Platinum Card® from American Express, will earn 5x Membership Rewards per $1 spent on all tickets booked directly with the airline or AmexTravel.com (up to $500,000 per year, then 1x points).

Otherwise, you can opt to use the Chase Sapphire Reserve®, which earns you 3x Ultimate Rewards points per $1 spent on all travel and offer trip cancellation and interruption insurance to boot.

Final Thoughts

Flights from the West Coast to Europe tend to be pricey, especially when flying nonstop. However, thanks to this fare sale from Condor, you can enjoy a European vacation for as little as $1,100 roundtrip in premium economy — helping you remain comfortable without breaking the bank.

Even better, as a full-service airline, Condor is going to provide benefits such as free checked luggage and priority security access. Book now before it’s too late!
