How the index is built.
The June 2026 edition tracks 94 routes from 9 US gateways (JFK, LAX, SFO, MIA, ORD, IAD, BOS, SEA, ATL) to 30 international destinations. Each figure is a typical round-trip Business Class consolidator fare band for weekday, shoulder-season travel, sourced from BusinessClassTravel.us contracted-fare observations across 60+ airline partners.
Fares are “from” rates per person and include taxes and surcharges. They are 30-60% below the airline's published Business Class price on the same flights, because consolidator fares are negotiated net fares filed in private buckets. Peak-season, last-minute, and West-Coast transatlantic routings price higher than the ranges shown. Actual fares vary by exact dates, cabin, and availability.

Transatlantic Business Class to Europe in this index ranges from $2,300 (cheapest: JFK-MAD) into the mid-$4,000s round-trip in shoulder season, through a contracted consolidator. London, Madrid, and Frankfurt are consistently the cheapest European destinations from the US East Coast; peak summer adds roughly 30-50%.
Each figure is a typical round-trip consolidator fare band (low to high) for weekday shoulder-season travel from the named US gateway, sourced from BusinessClassTravel.us contracted-fare observations across 60+ airline partners. Fares are "from" rates per person, include taxes and surcharges, and vary by exact dates, cabin, and availability. Peak-season and last-minute fares run higher; the index reflects the typical advance-booking shoulder-season range.
Yes. The fares in this index are contracted/private fares, which are typically 30-60% below the airline's published Business Class price on the same flight. The discount is structural: consolidators hold negotiated net fare buckets in exchange for volume, with a narrower refund policy than full-flex retail. The ticket is still issued on the airline's own stock with a real PNR.
