Norse Atlantic has just announced a nonstop service connecting Los Angeles (LAX) with the Greek capital of Athens (ATH).

The route will launch in June 2025, and we’re already seeing round-trip fares in premium economy from just $949 — that’s an absolute bargain!

Here’s everything you need to know.

Fare Deal — Details

Norse’s 4x weekly route will launch on June 3, 2025, and will be the only nonstop service between Los Angeles (LAX) and Athens.

Even if Athens isn’t on your ‘to-visit’ list, you can easily hop on a plane or a boat to quite literally thousands of idyllic Greek islands.

These bargain $949 round-trip fares include wider seats than you’ll find in economy and have 43 inches of pitch and extra recline. The fares also include priority check-in and boarding, a full complimentary meal service, and even an amenity kit.

The main difference between premium economy with a full-service carrier and Norse’s Premium Light fares is baggage allowance. Rather than a checked bag, these fares only include a carry-on bag with a weight limit of 33 pounds (15 kilograms).

These fares are available to book in the peak summer travel months of July, August, and September.

Class: Premium economy
Routes: Los Angeles (LAX) to Athens (ATH)
Dates: July through September 2025
Rates: From $949 round-trip

The earliest we found these fares is departing on July 12.

Best Ways To Book

The best way to find the $949 fares is by using Google Flights‘ nifty Explore tool.

When possible, we’d always recommend booking directly with the airline.

When doing so, using a travel rewards card will get you even more value for your money. For example, The Platinum Card^® from American Express offers 5x Membership Rewards points per $1 spent on flights booked directly with the airline or through AmexTravel.com (capped at $500,000 spent on these purchases per calendar year, then 1x points).

Hot Tip:

The Platinum Card also comes with complimentary Priority Pass lounge access (upon enrollment), meaning you can wine and dine in the lounge even before catching flights with low-cost airlines like Norse.
