All business class from EWR to ORY. They recently upgraded their planes to flatbed business. ~$1400 round trip. Really tempted for next spring break…
most of the reviews say it’s not equal to traditional biz class but at the price, worth every penny. Delay/cancellations can be an issue as they don’t have much of a fleet
I think not all are lie flat too.
they are all lie-flat. Angled on the 757. 180deg on the new a321neo
Fleet issue def seems real though. Tracked a couple flights y’day and one was a 363 so must be a wet lease or something if one of the new planes is not in yet.
We flew the old planes back in March before the new planes rolled out and it was worth every penny even then. With the new planes it’s a no-brainer. I have a referral code if you’re interested (gets both of us extra points toward a free flight).
We plan to fly this airline every time we go to Europe from now on. Make sure your schedule is flexible in case they have a delay.
Bump. Anyone used them recently? Very reasonable prices for next Spring and fully refundable now.
i flew on the A321neos in December 2019. the airline is targeting people with enough money to not bargain hunt but who don’t want to or can’t stomach the majors’ often 4k+ for a relatively short flight in biz/first. lie-flat biz hard product, premium economy service. works for me!

If you didn’t pull the trigger there is a sale right now
Has anyone flown them recently? I’ve seen some mixed things online.
I was just telling my friends about them over the weekend. We flew them to Paris and then out of Nice in mid 2024. I flew back to Nice this year on American business class and found the La Compagnie experience better. The planes were nice, good service, respectable meals and wine , friendly staff . They had contracted with some airport lounges for access. One drawback was that you had to get a separate ticket to Newark, so you have to change terminals with your luggage. The other is that it is a small fleet, so if one cancels, you may not have a lot of alternatives other than to wait until the next day. I would try them again.

I’ve flown them several times, all with positive experiences. And compared to business class on Virgin, Delta and Air France, I find them of similar quality but usually 30-50% less and you get to fly in and out of Orly, which I much prefer over CDG.
On the flip side…. Newark. lol
