Admin Posted January 17, 2024 Share Posted January 17, 2024 Paris is a bucket list destination for many travelers thanks to its spectacular museums and art galleries, charming streets and exceptional food scene. Luckily, there are deals on nonstop flights to the City of Light on American Airlines and international low-cost carrier French Bee. Discounted flights are available now through April and in November and December. There are a few options scattered throughout August and September, too. Deal basics Airlines: American and French Bee Routes: Chicago, Newark and New York City to Paris How to book: Browse Google Flights and book directly with the airline Travel dates: January through April; November and December Book by: As soon as possible Sample flights Nonstop flights from Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport (ORD) to Paris-Charles de Gaulle Airport (CDG) are around $479. There are cheaper flight options available on other airlines if you want to spend less, but know that they aren’t nonstop. GOOGLE.COM/FLIGHTS The price applies to American’s basic economy fare, which allows one free carry-on bag. If you want to check a bag, you must upgrade to the main cabin or fork over an extra $150 for the round trip. French Bee also offers nonstop flights to Paris from Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR). Flights land at Paris-Orly Airport (ORY) rather than CDG. GOOGLE.COM/FLIGHTS As with American, this fare includes one carry-on bag. You’ll pay more for extra baggage.
