THIS OFFER HAS ENDED

Air France has further extended the amazing business class sale for their new upcoming Ottawa to Paris route and their returning Quebec City route! Right now you can purchase round trip business class fares for $2,242. If you have the Platinum Card from American Express  you can get these flights for even less thanks to the card’s International Airline Program. The examples below show Ottawa however the pricing is the same for Quebec City. This offer was set to end on May 31 but when I checked on June 4 the sale was still in place. All of the screenshots and examples below were updated as of June 4.

Update: We have learned the sale will be in place until June 21, 2023

Ottawa or Quebec City to Paris for $2,242 booked with Air France

One must assume that the business class cabin for these two routes have not been selling too well for the airline to offer such an amazing price! In general business class travel does taper off during summer months but to have prices drop this low seems to tell another story. No matter the reason it is great for the consumer!

If you don’t have the Platinum Card from American Express you can book these flights directly with Air France for $1,121 each way or $2,242 round trip. Those prices include all taxes and fees and are person.

 

 

 

These low fare prices are available almost every day from early July to early December. As the Ottawa flight only operates 5x weekly the other days with this low price will include the bus connection from Ottawa to Montreal or connecting flights with WestJet to Toronto.
