Chicago, New York, & Washington: €3,049 Oneworld First Class from Lisbon to North America

Oneworld partners British Airways and American Airlines are offering discounted first class tickets from Lisbon, starting at €3,049 to New York. Chicago and Washington are discounted, as well. Availability depends on the destination, though it’s brilliant for New York.

Tickets include business class flights from Lisbon to London and First Class flights across the pond in both directions. In addition, you get three check bags up to 32 kg each and access to British Airways’ dedicated First Class lounge in Heathrow.

You can fly to the following airports for less than €3,300:

• New York at €3,049
• Washington at €3,115
• Chicago at €3,258

Our availability calendar highlights all possible flight dates for less than €3,300; for trips up to 28 days. It will forward you to British Airways with your selected flight dates. If the reduced tickets are no longer available, you can usually find discounted departures a couple of days earlier or later.

You would always first fly to London in British Airways’ business class. From there, you fly directly to the USA. Usually, your transatlantic flight would be operated by British Airways, with American costing a bit more.

British Airways First Class

British Airways’ first class is not as glamorous as its Middle Eastern or Asian competitors. On the other hand, it’s often offered for prices that are not very far from what others charge for business class. All tickets include a 3x 32 kg baggage allowance, access to first class lounges (where available) and exquisite catering.

The seats are 1.98 m long and also more spacious than those in the new business class Club Suite. However, there are only doors in the latest product on board a few of the Boeing 777 planes. Depending on the type of aircraft, the cabin consists of 8 to 14 first class seats.

American Airlines First Class

At American Airlines, there is only a real first class named Flagship First in the Boeing 777-300. The alignment is like in business class (1-2-1) and otherwise, the seat is (unfortunately) more reminiscent of a good business class, but at least it is a lot more spacious. The swivel function of the seat is quite unique so that you can look straight ahead through the window during the flight.

Especially the soft product still has a lot of room for improvement. Here are a few relevant reviews:
