Catch Me If You Can - a golden epoch of travel

The concept of La Compagnie is redolent of a glamorous, Catch Me If You Can style era of travel - but with a price tag that's more affordable than ever before.

The airline's current offer is return flights to Paris-Newark for 1200 euros (£943), compared to Air France business class flights on the same route for £3,000 (economy class flights start at £315 one-way) and United Airlines business class flights for £2,515.

Budget airline Norwegian made headlines in June this year when it announced the launch of a new London to New York route from just £150 one-way.

La Compagnie flights depart daily from Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport at 5.50pm and arrive in Newark International Airport at 8.30pm. Return flights depart New York at 9.45pm and arrive in Paris at 11.15am.

Newark airport is around a half hour drive from New York City. Take a look around La Compagnie's business class craft, below.
