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.
All-business airline La Compagnie is running another deal for flyers traveling in pairs between Newark and London-Luton. Tickets for two start at $2,784 round-trip, which breaks down to about $1,392 per person. This particular promotion is available for travel through June 30. You won't be able to credit miles to airlines like Delta or United, however, the airline launched its own program in 2015. If you're not familiar with La Compagnie, TPG flew the airline last year and found it to be a good option for transatlantic service.
