## Are there Black Friday Business Class flight deals?

Usually, but they are short and narrow. In 2025, British Airways, Qatar Airways, Cathay Pacific, Singapore Airlines, TAP Air Portugal and La Compagnie ran sales from US gateways that included Business Class, with booking windows of about one to two weeks around Black Friday and Travel Tuesday. As of October 30, 2026, no airline had announced its 2026 Business Class sale.

- Black Friday: Nov 27, 2026 · Travel Tuesday: Dec 1, 2026
- 2025 example: BA Club World New York-London $2,999 round trip
- Booking windows ran about 1-2 weeks
- "Up to" discounts usually apply to the base fare only
- No 2026 Business Class sale announced as of Oct 30

## Black Friday 2026 dates

| Thanksgiving | Thursday, November 26, 2026 |
|---|---|
| Black Friday | Friday, November 27, 2026 |
| Cyber Monday | Monday, November 30, 2026 |
| Travel Tuesday | Tuesday, December 1, 2026 |

Travel Tuesday is Hopper's name for the Tuesday after Thanksgiving (it calls the day Travel Deal Tuesday and says it started it in 2017). Airline sales often run across the whole stretch, from the week before Black Friday to Travel Tuesday.

## Business Class sales from the US in 2025

What airlines offered in the 2025 Black Friday to Travel Tuesday week, as reported at the time. These sales are over; they show what to expect, not what will repeat.

| Airline | Business Class offer | Booking window | Travel dates |
|---|---|---|---|
| British Airways | Club World round trips to London from $2,899 (Boston), $2,999 (New York), $3,337 (Tampa) and $3,999 (Los Angeles) | Nov 26 - Dec 3, 2025 | Dec 10, 2025 - Mar 31, 2026 |
| Qatar Airways | Up to 25% off the base fare in some Business booking classes (taxes and surcharges not discounted) | Nov 20 - 28, 2025 (members from Nov 18) | To Oct 31, 2026, with holiday blackouts |
| Cathay Pacific | Business on sale to 80+ destinations from 7 US gateways, plus $100 off for Cathay members | Nov 30, 2025 | Jan 10 - May 2026 and Aug - Oct 24, 2026 |
| Singapore Airlines | 15-20% off all cabins from five US cities to Asia | Dec 2, 2025 | Into 2026, blackout dates applied |
| TAP Air Portugal | Business to Europe from $2,499 round trip | Dec 2, 2025 | Jan 31 - May 15, 2026 |
| La Compagnie | All-Business non-stops Newark to Milan or Paris for $2,400 round trip | Nov 28, 2025 | Through April (Milan through May) |

Airline terms as reported by the airline or by deal publications at the time; see sources below. No airline had announced a 2026 Business Class sale as of October 30, 2026. We will add them here as they are announced.

## Read the fine print

- **Short windows.** The 2025 sales ran for roughly one to two weeks, and the lowest advertised fares can sell out before the end: British Airways advertised New York-London at $2,999, and one deal roundup showed $3,707 the day before the sale closed.
- **Holiday blackouts.** Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year dates were blacked out or outside the travel window.
- **Base fare only.** "Up to 25% off" applied to the base fare, not taxes and carrier surcharges, so the saving on the total is smaller.
- **Rules on the ticket.** Round-trip only, minimum and maximum stays, advance purchase, day-of-week rules and a limited number of seats in specific fare classes.
- **Changes cost money.** Sale fares usually carry change fees or fare differences; check the rules before you pay.

## Are Black Friday flights actually cheaper?

The evidence is thin, and there is none for Business Class specifically. KAYAK's 2018 search data found median fares about 6-10% lower on Black Friday for some regions and about 5% lower on Cyber Monday. Hopper's well-known Travel Tuesday figures count the number of deals and best-case savings for select users rather than average fares.

Sales also come back. British Airways listed New York-London in Club World at $3,080 round trip in its January 2026 sale, within about 3% of its Travel Tuesday price. And holiday fares are high this year: Hopper's 2026 holiday outlook put Thanksgiving and Christmas fares at a 10-year high, citing jet fuel costs. The practical test: compare any sale fare with the same route a week or two earlier, and if a good fare appears before Black Friday, take it.

## Points deals around Black Friday

Card transfer bonuses cluster in November too. In 2025, Chase offered a 40% (later 30%) bonus to Virgin Atlantic, Capital One 20% to British Airways Avios, and Bilt up to 100% to Etihad on November 1 and to British Airways, Iberia and Aer Lingus Avios on December 1. As of late October 2026, Capital One's 30% bonus to Virgin Atlantic runs through November 20 and Citi's 10% bonus to Cathay Pacific through November 14.

## How we handle the sale week

Send your route and dates. Your advisor checks the airline's own sale fare, if there is one on your route, against our contracted fares, and sends the better option in writing with the fare rules, change terms and aircraft spelled out. Contracted fares are not tied to a one-week sale window, so if the sale misses your dates, the quote still stands.

## Frequently asked

### When is Black Friday 2026?

Black Friday is Friday, November 27, 2026, the day after Thanksgiving (Thursday, November 26). Cyber Monday is November 30 and Travel Tuesday is Tuesday, December 1, 2026.

### What is Travel Tuesday?

Travel Tuesday is the Tuesday after Thanksgiving, when travel brands publish post-Black Friday deals. Hopper says it created the day, which it calls Travel Deal Tuesday, in 2017. In 2026 it falls on December 1.

### Which airlines have Black Friday Business Class sales?

In 2025, British Airways, Qatar Airways, Cathay Pacific, Singapore Airlines, TAP Air Portugal and La Compagnie all ran sales from US gateways that included Business Class. As of October 30, 2026, no airline had announced its 2026 Business Class sale; in 2024 and 2025 most announcements came in mid to late November.

### Are Black Friday Business Class deals worth it?

Sometimes. The best 2025 examples were real, such as British Airways Club World from New York to London at $2,999 round trip. But the windows were short, seats were limited to specific fare classes, holiday dates were blacked out, and "up to" discounts applied to the base fare only. British Airways listed the same route at $3,080 in its January 2026 sale, so a Black Friday fare is not always a one-off.

### Are flights actually cheaper on Black Friday or Travel Tuesday?

The evidence is thin, and there is none specific to Business Class. KAYAK's 2018 search data showed median fares about 6-10% lower on Black Friday for some regions and about 5% lower on Cyber Monday. Hopper's Travel Tuesday figures count the number of deals and best-case savings for select users, not average fares. Compare any sale fare with the same route a week or two earlier.

### Do Black Friday sales cover Thanksgiving, Christmas or New Year travel?

Rarely. The 2025 Business Class sales mostly blacked out the Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year weeks or started travel after the holidays (British Airways from December 10, TAP from January 31, Cathay from January 10). For holiday dates, book as early as you can rather than waiting for a sale.

### Can I get a Black Friday price through Business Class Travel?

Send us your route and dates. During the sales your advisor checks the airline's own sale fare against our contracted fares and quotes the better option in writing, with the fare rules spelled out. Contracted fares are not tied to a one-week sale window, so the quote stands on its own merits either way.

## Fare information & legal notice

At Business Class Travel, all fares are transparently displayed in USD and include all taxes, fees, and surcharges. Quoted prices are 'from' rates per person, typically for weekday (Monday-Thursday) Business Class travel originating in the USA, with the final price varying based on your chosen cabin, departure city, airline, and route. Generally, the lowest transatlantic fares depart from the East Coast, transpacific from the West Coast, and Latin American routes from Florida. To offer you unique value, some partner airline or itinerary details may remain confidential online until the time of booking, allowing us to secure savings of up to 60% off full unrestricted fares from major airlines, though actual savings vary by specific fare rules. Please note that some airlines may charge extra for baggage, and all our special fares are subject to seat availability, which is limited and may not be available on all flights or dates. We are pleased that many of our partner airlines currently offer flexible booking policies, including free exchanges and/or cancellations; typically, cancellations result in an airline travel credit (less any airline fees) valid per the airline's policy, while exchanges may incur a fare difference. Fares and their governing rules are subject to change without prior notice, and other restrictions may apply. The Business Class Travel team is always here to assist with any questions.
