If it occasionally happens to you that you like one of our deals, but it’s not with your preferred alliance, this deal is likely to have your back. Two of the three major alliances (Star Alliance and Oneworld) discounted premium economy tickets from Spain (especially from Barcelona) to the United States. You can reach Chicago, Washington D.C. and New York City for under €700 and San Francisco just barely over the €700 mark. Both alliances allow you to check in two bags for free.
These are the highlights of this deal:
Star Alliance
Our availability calendar highlights all possible flight dates at the lowest price for trips up to 28 days. The cheapest options usually include an Air Canada flight. To find them, the best option is to go to the Travel-Dealz.com flight search, which will then forward you to Air Canada. However, Lufthansa Group flights are usually just a little more expensive. Some of the best routings (short travel times, just one stop) are only available on Expedia.
Itineraries & Products
You would fly Air Canada’s Boeing 787 to Montreál, where you need to clear US pre-clearance, easing your US arrival process. Their Dreamliner has a 2-3-2 configuration in premium economy. Unfortunately, your next flight would be in economy class, even to San Francisco (5-6 hours). Therefore it may be better to connect in Zürich, Munich or Frankfurt and enjoy 10-12 hours of premium economy on United’s Boeing 777, SWISS’ Boeing 777, Lufthansa’s Boeing 747 (all of them 2-4-2) or Airbus A350 (2-3-2).
Lufthansa’s Premium Economy
In comparison to other airlines, Lufthansa’s Premium Economy is solid, but not outstanding. The reclining seats and legroom are above average. Still, cabin service and entertainment are almost the same as in LH’s economy class product.
In contrast to its regular economy seats, Lufthansa offers broader and more comfortable seats in Premium Economy, switching from a 3-4-3 / 3-3-3 seat alignment to 2-4-2 (Boeing 747 and Airbus A380) or 2-3-2 on its other wide-body aircraft. Furthermore, you can check two bags up to 23 kg at no additional cost. While the food is identical, it’ll be served on chinaware instead of plastic.

To New York City, you would fly either LEVEL’s Airbus A330 which offers a 2-3-2 configuration or America’s Boeing 777 (2-4-2).

The Best eSIM Plans for the USA 🇺🇸 Compared
→ All Dealz for San Francisco
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.
