A French airline is offering unlimited flights between Paris and New York for $40,000
The airline typically charges about $1,700 for the route, so you have to be shuttling between the New York and Paris often to make the deal worth it.
The startup airline, based in Paris, operates only two Boeing 757-200s, each with just over 70 seats, and flies strictly between Charles de Gaulle and Newark Liberty airports (a US-UK route was dropped).
The seats are all business class, and round-trip tickets can be had for as little as $1,500 (versus $4,000-5,000 a pop for other international carriers).
However, from September 19-22 consumers can pay $40,000 on one of ten "L’Unlimited" annual passes and hop on one of those 757s whenever they want.
