Deal Alert: New York and Chicago to Paris from $492 Round-Trip

Update: Some offers mentioned below are no longer available. View the current offers here.

Airfare deals are typically only available on limited dates. We recommend that you use Google Flights to find dates to fly, then book through an online travel agency, such as Orbitz, which allows you to cancel flights without penalty by 11pm Eastern Time within one day of booking. Remember: Fares may disappear quickly, so book right away and take advantage of Orbitz's courtesy cancellation if you're unable to travel. Additionally, keep in mind that discounted partner fares may not earn miles with US-based carriers.

Update: LOT is also running a sale on business class on select routes from the US, with fares starting around $1,600 round-trip.

LOT Polish Airlines has more flight deals this morning following its sale on travel bound for Budapest last week. This time, travelers originating in Chicago (ORD) and New York (JFK) can find flights from $492 round-trip to Paris (CDG). As with the Budapest deal, these flights have a connection in Warsaw en route to Paris (usually 4-5 hours). Additionally, because LOT is a Star Alliance member, you may be able to earn redeemable and elite-qualifying miles with United — most likely based on the "L" fare class, which will earn you 25% PQMs, but unfortunately no segments.
