Miami: €1,365 for Air Europa Business Class From Spain

The Spanish carrier Air Europa is currently offering nicely priced tickets for flights to Miami in business class. Round-trips start as low as €1,365 and you can choose from two different airports of departure.

It can be tricky to find this deal since Google Flights won’t display the correct prices when searching via the calender function. But we’ve been able to find a few example dates:

• From Madrid
  • January 15th – January 22nd
  • January 22nd – January 30th
  • February 5th – February 13th
  • February 19th – February 27th
  • March 4th – March 12th
  • March 17th – March 26th
• From Barcelona
  • January 9th – January 16th
  • January 16th – January 30th
  • Februray 4th – February 13th
  • February 19th – February 27th
  • March 3rd – March 17th
  • March 19th – March 24th

You should be able to find more dates in early 2020. Also, since the transatlantic flight from Madrid to Miami is always the same one, the dates above will most likely be interchangeable between the two airports of departure.

Trips from Barcelona will include a layover in Madrid whereas flights departing from the Spanish capital will be non-stop connections. Air Europa will operate a Boeing 787 and the long-haul route to the USA.

The SkyTeam member might not be the most famous airline. But rest assured that their business class product is up-to-date. Onboard of the Dreamliner, you’ll find lie-flat seats in a 2-2-2 configuration. Even though all seats offer o good amount of privacy, due to the layout, not everybody will have direct aisle access. Something you might want to keep in mind when traveling alone.

Here’s a review that will give you a good impression of what will await you when flying Air Europas premium product:

Search & Book

The fare rules for this deal are rather sparse. The only thing that we’ve been able to find out is that you can only book your outbound flight between Tuesdays and Thursdays. No hint as to how long this deal will be available or if there are restrictions to the travel period. Availability seems to be good in January, February and March 2020.

Also, the carrier would allow you to spend up to 12 months in the USA. But remember that most EU citizens will need an ESTA which will only be valid for 90 days.

At this point, we normally refer to Google Flights (instructions). But unfortunately this time the tool can’t help, since for some reason prices will not be displayed. This is also true for the ITA Airfare Search. So the only option is to fiddle around with our Travel Dealz flight search. You will be able to get the promoted fare from OTAs but also from the airlines itself.

Why is booking with an airline better than with an online travel agency?

More often than not, online travel agencies offer lower fares than airlines do. We still recommend booking with the airlines directly. There are two main reasons for that:

Better Customer Service
In case any problems like delays, cancellations or missed connections arise, you can communicate directly with the airline. The airline has to take care of you because you have a contract with them.

If a travel agency issues your ticket, you may have to reach out to them first. You also depend on your OTA to forward information like flight changes instead of receiving them directly from the airline. In many cases, you may get a prime exhibition of responsibility shifting rather than problem-solving.

This especially applies to premium tickets. You don’t want to spend more than €1,000 to wind up with some budget OTA’s telephone hotline in case anything goes wrong.

Baggage and Other Fees
Economy fares not including hold luggage are industry standard by now. In most cases, travel agencies charge much higher baggage fees than the airlines themselves. If bags are not included in your fare, airlines are often the cheaper alternative.

This also applies to other things like food services, insurances or priority treatment. In almost all cases, you pay less for additional amenities when booking on the airlines’ website.

Mileage

Tickets for all flights should be issued in booking class I. Since Air Europa is a member of SkyTeam, this can get you an earning rate of up to 100% with some programs. Here’s an example of what you would earn for a trip from Madrid:

Information & Tips for USA

The United States offers a wide range of tourist sights, from national parks like Yellowstone and the Grand Canyon to cities such as New York, Los Angeles, and Washington, D.C. The currency is the U.S. dollar (USD), and card payments are widely accepted. Prices vary by region but can be high in major cities, especially for accommodation and dining. Weather differs greatly across the country—winters can be harsh in the north, while the south often stays mild; summers are generally hot and humid in many areas.

The U.S. transport infrastructure is highly car-dependent, especially outside major cities. Urban centres like New York, Chicago, and San Francisco have functional public transit, but many other cities have limited options. Between cities, domestic flights are common for long distances, while intercity buses and Amtrak trains cover some routes, though often with slower speeds and less frequency compared to other countries. Without a car, getting around can be inconvenient in many parts of the country.
