Five companies serve this axis in economy class, but prices and comfort vary widely. Discover our comparison.


It is one of the most popular airlines in the world.

After an unprecedented interruption during the pandemic, the Paris-New York line is gradually regaining significant traffic.

Five airlines now operate regular non-stop flights between the Big Apple and the City of Light in economy class: Air France, French Bee, Delta Airlines, United Airlines and American Airlines.

  • Stays in France: weekends, hotels and tailor-made stays from our partners

  • Trips to the United States: tours, hotels and tailor-made stays from our partners

How to choose, then, your ticket in the face of so many choices?

Price, of course, is a determining factor.

But on such a long flight it is better to make sure of the conditions in which the trip will take place.

Wifi connection on board, USB socket, meals... And be careful of the arrival time: leaving Paris too late means landing in New York in the evening, and therefore losing a day on the trip.

Also pay attention to the arrival terminal, Newark (EWR) or John Fitzgerald Kennedy (JFK).

If they are equal in terms of public transport service, they do not offer the same level of comfort: Air France, for example, has a lounge at JFK but not at Newark.
