Emirates is offering a nice discount when traveling with 2 or more passengers on the same itinerary – $439 per person. If you are just traveling as one, the cheapest fare is $619 with United.

This fare does not meet our 6 cents per mile criterion as it is only 50% mileage earning however, we are posting it since fares to Europe for under $500 are not common.
