French airline La Compagnie plans to launch business class flights to New York on April 25 from Luton Airport.
It will initially offer three-weekly round trip services with the aim of providing daily flights by the end of the year.
Tickets have already gone on sale and ‘special launch fares’ are available from £1,007 for two persons travelling together, including all taxes, for the first 500 clients.
Frantz Yvelin, La Compagnie's CEO and co-founder, said: "It is time to bring business-class air service back to where it belongs, where personalised service is offered at respectable fares.
"La Compagnie is becoming the go-to choice of the current generation of hard-working business travellers who demand something more from air transportation.
