Meet the 10 most expensive airline tickets in the world
If you've used online search engines to buy airline tickets, you may have been surprised by bizarre stops or exorbitant prices, but surely nothing you saw comes close to what we're going to show here.
After wondering about the most expensive airline ticket in the world, the Jalopnik team asked their readers for help in finding the answer. Working together, they found parts that cost the same as an imported car. Do you have a guess about which one is the most expensive?
To keep the suspense, let's start the list at the end. Get ready, because the scare is big! Remember: the value shown here is always for one person, one way only!
10. Fairbanks (Alaska / USA) - Auckland (New Zealand)
You may already know that Emirates is one of the most luxurious (and expensive) airlines in the world. But to the surprise of many, it only appears at the bottom of this list. A trip through Dubai before arriving in New Zealand is priced at $ 28, 066 in a 36-hour trip.
9. Dallas (USA) - London (United Kingdom)
Leaving Dallas to London shouldn't be too long (not even expensive), but with All Nippon Airways (ANA) you'll fly through many different cities, flying for almost 28 hours and spending $ 31, 464 (R). $ 64, 000). But why so much? The reason here is simple: as the airline operates only in Japan, passing through it generates a combination that adds up the fares of the trip and raises the price high.
8. Miami (USA) - Tokyo (Japan)
It's almost 25 hours of travel, and once you fly, you'll be $ 32, 758 poorer.
7. New York (USA) - London (United Kingdom)
How about leaving New York, stopping by Tokyo and only then arriving at your destination: London? It is unusual, but it is possible by All Nippon Airways (ANA). As we said earlier, because it is a strictly Japanese company, the rates are combined and the value generated is too high. In this stretch, you would have to invest $ 37, 297 and fly for no less than 41 hours.
6. New York (USA) - Frankfurt (Germany)
The same thing happens in this section: leaving New York has Germany as its destination, but before that you will pass through Japan - and you will pay $ 37, 297 again for 44 hours. trip.
5. New York (USA) - Lisbon (Portugal)
Another trip that goes through All Nippon Airways (ANA) is $ 37, 360 and almost 47 hours on a plane, with a stop that seems mandatory for all parts of the company: Tokyo.
4. New York (USA) - Istanbul (Turkey)
If you have $ 37, 992 and almost 46 hours left, you can try traveling from New York to Turkey, first through Japan (of course!) And then Germany, just for fun.
3. New York (USA) - Oslo (Norway)
There are 28 hours of travel on a flight that is usually no more than 7 hours long. With weird stops, you'll pay $ 39, 001 to get to a distant place, but not that much.
2. Santiago (Chile) - Beirut (Lebanon)
Flying a Boeing and an Airbus on the same trip is what Air France offers on this stretch with a stop in Paris to change aircraft. However, the joke is not cheap at all: it's $ 39, 525 on a 20-hour, 30-minute flight.
1. New York (USA) - Sao Paulo (Brazil)
Yes! We are at the top of the list! Anyone who wants to fly All Nippon Airways (ANA) will - besides shell out a stratospheric value - take an absurd 59 hours to arrive. The craziest thing is that instead of the traditional 9 or 10 hours direct flight (50 hours less!), You leave North America, fly to Tokyo, then go to London, UK, only then arrive in Brazil!
Believe me, the simple JFK - GRU stretch can take you across three different continents for no reason. Flights with surreal stops like these usually have good discounts, as it is considered the wear of the passenger, but this is not the case. It's US $ 40, 994 (R $ 83, 500) for this “special program”.
