January 4, 2006 – FOR a limited period only, transatlantic low-cost operator MAXjet Airways is offering a $999 round-trip business-class fare from New York to London.

Washington DC-based MAXjet operates all-business-class services between New York JFK and London Stansted at what it describes as “everyday low fares”. Its Boeing 767-200ERs are configured with 102 business-class seats and the service offering includes IFE delivered via handheld APS/Wencor digEplayers. Service between Washington Dulles and Stansted is due to be added early this year.

Tickets for the $999 deal must be bought between tomorrow and January 17, and travel must be completed by March 31.
