Air France's premium passage deals are wonderfully affordable

It’s unusual that Cheapflights would run a story on premium passage. But every now and then a sale comes along that breaks the mold. Case-in-point: Air France’s Premium Voyager summer sale. Premium Voyager is the French flag carrier’s take on premium economy. It provides 40 percent more space, a new shell-shaped seat that begets a bit more privacy, a wider video screen, and a smattering of business class amenities – travel kit, better headphones, feather pillow and wool blanket.

Air France is selling Premium Voyager just now for a comparative pittance. Fly June 25 through Aug. 31, during the heart of the summer season.

Sample fares are one way, but you’ve got to make a roundtrip purchase to get them, and stay over at least one Sunday night. Book and buy at least 14 days prior to departure. Taxes and fees are not included.
