Valentine’s Day is for lovers, right? Lovers of airfare deals, that is (at least for us travel addicts). And we’ve admittedly fallen hard for the two-for-one sale launched by all-business-class airline La Compagnie that is running through February 14.
The boutique French airline came back onto the scene in summer 2021 after being grounded during the pandemic. It offers more affordable all-business-class flights from New Jersey’s Newark International Airport to Paris Orly; Milan, Italy; and to Nice in the south of France.

So, grab a partner, pal, or family member and make some Europe travel plans while this offer lasts. The deal is available on the La Compagnie website. It applies to travel through December 31, 2024, on a “limited selection of flights.” All tickets are nonrefundable, but dates can be changed without a fee and flight credits are valid for up to two years.
La Compagnie offers daily service from Newark to Paris, five times a week service from Newark to Milan, and a seasonal route to Nice that will resume service on April 20.
The reborn version of La Compagnie features a fleet of sleek new Airbus A321neos with 76 lie-flat seats in a two-by-two configuration—“perfect for couples or two friends traveling together,” according to our recent review of the airline.
Flights also feature seat-back entertainment, free Wi-Fi, and elevated airplane cuisine. (Passengers are offered selections that include seared tuna, burrata salad, cheese plates, organic wines, and champagne, plus croissants for breakfast, bien sûr).

In 1958, when Mary Pat Laffey Inman became a stewardess — as they were then called — for Northwest Airlines, she was 20 years old and the clock was already ticking. At 32, she would be forced to retire. That is, if she didn’t marry, get pregnant or even gain too much weight before that: All were grounds for termination. It was the golden age of aviation for everyone except, perhaps, the women serving in-flight meals to the nattily dressed passengers.
