Deal Alert: Fly in Premium Economy to LA from £765pp

Winter happens to be one of my favourite times of the year; where it’s perfectly acceptable to curl up on the sofa besides the log fire and indulge in festive treats. There’s also that “fun” thing called Christmas shopping.

If you’re like me and love to shop and travel; then I may have accidentally stumbled across a deal for the both of us. This winter you could fly from the cool temperatures in London to the warmer climes of Southern California and take advantage of the sales when doing your Christmas shopping for friends, family and of course… yourself.

 

The Deal

Award-winning airline Air New Zealand are offering a fantastic promotion with direct flights to LAX in their multi-award winning premium economy cabin from just £765pp. With a generous 42″ seat-pitch, tasty food, fine New Zealand wines and friendly Kiwi-service; you can’t go wrong. You’ll also entitled to check-in two bags each way, which is really the perfect excuse to splash out to fly in style and to ensure you have plenty of room for all those shopping bags.

Validity

According to the website; travel is permitted between November 21 – December 9, 2016; and then again between January 10 – April 5, 2017. This actually includes travel from London to LA and back again over Thanksgiving and Black Friday – another reason to travel to the Golden State and take advantage of all the Black Friday bargains.

Other dates are available between October 30 – November 19, and December 28 – January 8 from £790.

Is it worth it?

This really is a fantastic offer to fly which I am pretty sure won’t be around for long. You’ll be flying on Air New Zealand’s 777-300ER aircraft in the Premium Economy cabin which features the revolutionary Spaceseat in a 2-2-2 configuration. I’ve been fortunate enough to fly in the cabin on a number of occasions and it is hands down the most generous Premium Economy product I’ve experienced to date. On the flight from London, you’ll even be offered doughnuts just before landing. I’m not joking, here’s a cross-section of one I enjoyed recently. Yum!
