Condor Business Class, Up To 8 Seats
Now that Condor has rolled out its A330-900neo aircraft with a revamped business class product, this is a great way to fly to Europe.
With award space for up to 8 people next year from both the east and west coasts, this is definitely worth a look.

Flight Experience
Condor's new A330-900neo has a staggered 1-2-1 business class cabin layout. Every seat is lief-flat and has direct aisle access.
I haven't flown this product yet, but reviews suggest that the entire experience is quite impressive from food to amenities to entertainment options.
Upgrade To A Prime Seat
For an even better experience, you can pay just over $200 to select one of the four first row seats. These seats have more space, the bed is bigger, and you have an ottoman rather than a footwell. Basically, you have a lot more space.
On top of that, you get PJs, a nicer amenity kit, a snack basket, free text messaging, and a larger IFE screen.

Best Ways To Book
Alaska Mileage Plan: Great Award Rate To Europe
Alaska miles aren't the easiest to earn as you can only transfer Marriott points or earn them directly via a Bank of America co-branded card, 55,000 miles for a one-way business class ticket to Europe is excellent.

How To Book
You can use United or Alaska's site to run a calendar search and see your options. Here's how to run the search with Alaska:
- If you want to book a one-way, check "One-way"
- Check "Use miles"
- Enter your origin & destination
- Select your dates
- Select number of passengers
- Run the search
- Complete the booking
If you want to see a calendar of options or include a stopover (multi-city) search, you'll want to use this page.

Final Thoughts
I'll keep saying it, but book summer travel early and you can beat the rush to book next spring. Whether Germany is on your list or you'd like to see another European country, this is a great way to book!
Happy Booking!
