Oneworld partners British Airways and American Airlines are offering cheap premium economy tickets for flights between Amsterdam and the USA. Prices start at only €716 for flights to Orlando. There’s a huge variety of possible destinations, on both coasts. Also, 2 pieces of luggage are included.
This deal has been extended and now lasts until August 17, 2022.
There’s high availability from Late September until June.
Here are the cheapest destinations that we could find:
- Orlando for €716
- Miami for €742
- Boston for €746
- Tampa for €746
- San Francisco for €749
- San José for €749
- Los Angeles for €750
- Seattle for €766
From Amsterdam, you would either directly fly to the USA or fly via London, from where you would fly to your final destinations. Some airports require a second layover in the USA. You’ll either fly with American Airlines or British Airways. The service is similar on both airlines.
On some routes (e.g. to Tampa), British Airways will often offer cheap tickets that include an airport change in London. If you do select one of these tickets, make sure to leave a big time buffer for that airport change. Also, be aware that British Airways offers no assistance and that you’ll have to transfer with your luggage on your own.

Information & Tips for USA
The USA offers many sights, natural wonders and cultural significance. Thanks to numerous airlines offering flights across the Atlantic, it is always pretty inexpensive to get there. Alternatively, you can also cross the Atlantic by boat.
Immigration, ESTA & Visa Requirements
The USA has one of the strictest entry regulations in the world. Most EU citizens, among others, are lucky to be able to participate in the so-called Visa Waiver Program. If you get an electronic entry permit (ESTA) for approximately €20, you don’t need a visa for entry.
The Best Time to Visit
Due to its sheer size, the perfect time to visit the USA varies greatly from region to region. In winter, Florida is very popular due to the mild temperatures. In the summer the West and East Coasts are flooded by tourists which drives up the prices for hotels and flights and during the Indian Summer in late autumn New England is a very popular destination. The hurricane season between July and September can be dangerous in the Caribbean and the Gulf of Mexico. Florida and the southern states are regularly struck by these tropical storms. Blizzards occur from the East Coast to the Midwest during the winter months and regularly put air traffic and public life on hold.
Currency
The US dollar is widely used throughout the world and accepted as a currency in most tourist hotspots worldwide. That being said, carrying cash isn’t necessary in the US, all you need is a credit card! These are very common in the USA and are accepted pretty much everywhere without any issues. If you already have a credit card in your wallet, you should make sure that it does not charge a foreign currency fee if possible. Carrying a few dollars in cash doesn’t hurt though. You might need cash e.g. for the bus ticket if you want to buy it directly from the driver. Most of the time you even have to give exact change.
