Turkish Airlines is putting Texas in the deal spotlight for once with these great value return fares to Europe from $2,625 in business class.

While we wouldn’t classify this as particularly cheap, the fares are over $1,600 less than you’ll usually pay on these routes. That’s what makes this a deal in our eyes.

Shall we take a look?

Fare Deal — Details

Turkish Airlines is a member of the Star Alliance. This means you can add the frequent flyer membership number from your United or other Star Alliance member airline to enjoy the perks and benefits of any status you might have.

You’ll also earn miles and status points when flying with Turkish.

Türkiye’s national carrier is known for its excellent in-flight catering in business class, such as Upgraded Points Eshan Haque experienced on a Turkish flight from Chicago (ORD) to Istanbul (IST).

One thing to consider is that these journey times are long. In all cases, you’ll fly further than your final destination and then head back the way you came on your connecting flight from Istanbul. Even with the long layover in Istanbul, we think these fares are worth considering for your next trip to Europe.

Class: Business
Routes: Houston (IAH) to Prague (PRG), Madrid (MAD), Venice (VCE), and more via Istanbul (IST)
Dates: October 2025 to May 2026
Rates: From $2,625 round-trip

Here’s an example of a $2,625 fare from Houston to Venice:

Best Ways To Book

As always, I spotted this deal by using my favorite tool for finding flights: Google Flights.

We recommend booking these fares directly with Turkish Airlines. You’ll get even more value from this booking by paying with a credit card that rewards you for travel spending.

For example, The Platinum Card^® from American Express would earn you 5 Membership Rewards points per $1 spent when booking this flight directly with Turkish Airlines (limit of $500,000 per year on these purchases, then 1 point per $1 spent).

Final Thoughts

Thanks to Turkish, you can make the long journey from Texas to Europe a lot more enjoyable by taking the plunge on this great value business-class deal.

The hardest decision you’ll have to make is which city to go to! What’s more tempting, $1 pints in Prague, a gondola ride in Venice, or endless tapas in Madrid? We’re not sure either.
