CHRISTIAN KRAMER\/THE POINTS GUY<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>One redemption for Europe trips that has remained strong over the years is <a href=\"https:\/\/thepointsguy.com\/airline\/iberia\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Iberia<\/a>. Iberia operates flights from Chicago, Washington, D.C., Boston Logan International Airport (BOS), Dallas Fort Worth International Airport (DFW), Los Angeles International Airport (LAX), Miami International Airport (MIA), New York\u2019s John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) and San Francisco International Airport (SFO) to its main hub in Adolfo Suarez Madrid-Barajas Airport (MAD).<\/p>\n<p>Flights are operated by Iberia&#8217;s Airbus A330-200, A330-300 and A350-900 aircraft, each offering a 1-2-1 business class configuration. While the Airbus A350 offers Iberia\u2019s newest and best business class product (including sliding doors and an 18.5-inch 4K inflight entertainment screen), all three aircraft provide an excellent points value on transatlantic flights.<\/p>\n<p>Iberia prices its flights based on distance and whether your travel falls into peak or off-peak dates. Four of its departure gateways offer spectacular value. If you depart from New York&#8217;s JFK airport, Boston, Washington or Chicago, here&#8217;s what you&#8217;ll pay for one-way business-class flights:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Off-peak dates: <a href=\"https:\/\/thepointsguy.com\/guide\/iberia-sweet-spot-off-peak-europe\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">34,000 Avios<\/a> and about $120 in fees.<\/li>\n<li>Peak dates: 50,000 Avios and about $120 in fees.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Tickets on Iberia flights longer than 5,000 miles (any flights departing from Miami or cities west of Chicago) are pricier. An off-peak fare to Madrid from these destinations will run you 42,500 Avios.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"jsx-4252866712 tpg-figure\">\n<div style=\"padding-top:0\" class=\"jsx-3367723627

For Iberia, your flight needs to originate at an Iberia destination in the U.S. to get the proper mileage deal. However, for American Airlines, you can usually start your transatlantic journey at any point in the continental U.S. without increasing the number of miles spent on your itinerary.<\/p>\n<p>American offers a consistent economy class product across its transatlantic fleet; seats usually have 31 inches of pitch and 16.2 inches of width. Its long-haul fleet also offers inflight entertainment, power outlets and Wi-Fi.<\/p>\n<p>Depending on award availability, time of year and destination, transatlantic flights on American Airlines will vary in price. For example, you can book an itinerary from Tulsa International Airport (TUL) to London in June for just 36,000 miles and $5.60 in fees.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"jsx-4252866712 tpg-figure\">\n<div style=\"padding-top:0\" class=\"jsx-3367723627 full-width-auto-height-image\"><span style=\"box-sizing:border-box;display:block;overflow:hidden;width:initial;height:initial;background:none;opacity:1;border:0;margin:0;padding:0;position:relative\"><span style=\"box-sizing:border-box;display:block;width:initial;height:initial;background:none;opacity:1;border:0;margin:0;padding:0;padding-top:111.83144246353322%\"\/><img alt=\"\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"responsive\" style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;bottom:0;right:0;box-sizing:border-box;padding:0;border:none;margin:auto;display:block;width:0;height:0;min-width:100%;max-width:100%;min-height:100%;max-height:100%\"\/><noscript><img alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"responsive\" style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;bottom:0;right:0;box-sizing:border-box;padding:0;border:none;margin:auto;display:block;width:0;height:0;min-width:100%;max-width:100%;min-height:100%;max-height:100%\" sizes=\"100vw\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2023\/04\/Screenshot-2023-04-27-at-11.39.42-AM.png?width=640 640w, https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2023\/04\/Screenshot-2023-04-27-at-11.39.42-AM.png?width=750 750w, https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2023\/04\/Screenshot-2023-04-27-at-11.39.42-AM.png?width=828 828w, https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2023\/04\/Screenshot-2023-04-27-at-11.39.42-AM.png?width=1080 1080w, https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2023\/04\/Screenshot-2023-04-27-at-11.39.42-AM.png?width=1200 1200w, https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2023\/04\/Screenshot-2023-04-27-at-11.39.42-AM.png?width=1920 1920w, https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2023\/04\/Screenshot-2023-04-27-at-11.39.42-AM.png?width=2048 2048w, https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2023\/04\/Screenshot-2023-04-27-at-11.39.42-AM.png?width=3840 3840w\" src=\"https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2023\/04\/Screenshot-2023-04-27-at-11.39.42-AM.png?width=3840\"\/><\/noscript><\/span><\/div><figcaption class=\"jsx-4252866712 figcaption\">AA.COM<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Longer distance routings on American Airlines do not necessarily equate to more expensive tickets.

ZACH GRIFF\/THE POINTS GUY<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Lufthansa\u2019s first-class product is one of the best in the sky, but it is also notorious for being one of the hardest airline tickets to purchase with points. <a href=\"https:\/\/thepointsguy.com\/airline\/lufthansa\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Lufthansa<\/a> generally only opens up award availability for first-class tickets 15 days before departure. Because Lufthansa only operates this cabin on some of its aircraft (Boeing 747-8s, Airbus A380s, and a handful of Airbus A330s and A340s), first-class redemptions can be scarce.<\/p>\n<p>That said, Lufthansa offers a fantastic onboard experience. If you\u2019re traveling from Frankfurt Airport (FRA), you even get access to the special <a href=\"https:\/\/thepointsguy.com\/reviews\/lufthansa-first-class-terminal\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">first-class terminal<\/a> ; it has private customs and immigration facilities, a top-tier lounge and a chauffeur from the terminal directly to the tarmac next to your plane.<\/p>\n<p>Redemptions are a great value if you can find them. At the time of writing, first-class tickets from New York to Frankfurt are available for just 87,000 miles with <a
