All business class French airline La Compagnie flies from Newark to Paris-Orly airport and now is launching Newark to Nice, France seasonally. And pricing is an amazing $1199.23 roundtrip.

American Express increased the annual fee on the personal Platinum Card® from American Express -- which has monthly Uber credits but not Gogo passes -- to $550 but had not yet adjusted the annual fee on the Business Platinum Card.
