| | AA Business Class to Europe, Up to 9 Seats | Now, that I’m starting to dig out of all of this snow and ice on the east coast, I wanted to share some business class space to Europe. It’s sporadic, but American has up to 9 seats available on several routes. | Broadly speaking, each route has a one to three months with a decent bit of space - mostly on the return leg - but the months vary by route. I’ll also note that February is a good month if you’re looking for a last minute trip. How is it almost February already?! | Now, let’s get into it! |
