Conclusion

Travel in United Airlines for the price of a no-frills airline (no pun intended). People may dislike the turn UA has taken since the Continental merger, but at least this price will get you a (bad) meal and a checked suitcase, plus elite benefits for those with Star Alliance status.

Why should that be anyhow a good deal? 350 € to go to NYC and back? Thats pretty much a normal deal. You could even book around 220-250 € right now with *A from Germany…

  from BRU for that Period , it’s a good deal, for a direct flight.
  AA gave up flying on Bru last year, so good to see some decent price even if less competition.

    Yes, it is. Regular prices for discount economy in round trip transatlantic travel are usually around 500€.
