NEW YORK & WASHINGTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--With Independence Days in both the U.S. and France just around the corner, OpenSkies, the transatlantic all-business airline, is offering an amazing deal to help celebrate our freedom and free time at 30,000 feet. Savvy travelers can now experience the summer of their lives in beautiful, breathtaking Paris while saving $200 per person on a roundtrip booking. Tickets must be purchased through flyopenskies.com using the promotional code JULY200 in the booking engine.

“With the American and French independence days so close together, a promotion allowing travelers to experience the festivities in both countries is a no-brainer”

Through July 17, 2011, customers can book trips occurring between July 1 and Dec. 31, 2011 to take advantage of OpenSkies’ promotional code, which includes flying in either Biz Seat or Biz Bed business class to Paris from New York or Washington, D.C.

“With the American and French independence days so close together, a promotion allowing travelers to experience the festivities in both countries is a no-brainer,” said OpenSkies CEO Patrick Malval. “This discount is perfect for those hoping to explore France and the outdoors this summer, especially as an option for those who’ve waited to make their travel plans. It doesn’t get any better than Paris in the summer.”

Each OpenSkies aircraft has a maximum of 84 seats and features a unique 2x2 configuration in both spacious cabins – Biz Seat and Biz Bed – giving passengers a choice of a window or aisle seat on every flight. Biz Seats are wide seats that recline 140 degrees with a 52” pitch, and Biz Bed seats convert to completely flat beds (180-degree recline). All seats across both cabins are equipped with universal power outlets and feature individual entertainment systems that contain more than 50 hours of programming.

OpenSkies travelers also receive unique services and amenities on every flight including access to a pre-flight lounge in each airport, exceptional in-flight dining service with a selection of wine and champagne and much more.

In addition, travelers can take advantage of another red hot deal through July 8. Impromptu travelers can fly to Paris for just $699* each way from D.C. and $799* each way from New York, based on a roundtrip purchase through the “Impromptu Summer Saver” offer. This offer is for Biz Seat class only and travel is from July 10 through September 10, 2011.
