So if you rented a car - hopefully using AutoSlash to make the price cheaper than a round-trip taxi - you'll probably want to check in with French Bee first before returning your car to ensure you make the 5:30am check-in-counter cutoff. Note that the Papeete rental-car center doesn't open until 5am. That's less than the already reasonable $665 one-way that TPG's Zach Honig paid for his French Bee premium economy review flight. While I needed to review the economy cabin, between the cheap $252 fare and $240 buy-up, I could have scored a one-way premium economy flight for under $500 one-way. The check-in agent referred to a pricing chart and quoted me $240 for the walk-up upgrade. I also asked about the cost for upgrading to premium economy. I found this rather peculiar, as priority boarding was a component of multiple add-on packs. The agent checked his price list and then with a supervisor before telling me that priority boarding isn't available from Papeete. While I'll discuss the service in more detail in a separate post, I was able to book two one-way flights (PPT to SFO and SFO to ATL) through Kiwi for $473 total - including insurance that would rebook me for free if the French Bee flight arrived too late to make the United flight.Īfter being unsuccessful in purchasing priority boarding during online check-in, I inquired about it during counter check-in. Wary of both the operational performance of low-cost carriers and the high lodging costs in the Bay Area, I didn't want to risk booking two different tickets. The cheapest one-way ticket from Tahiti to Atlanta (ATL) was over $1,000 one-way. I checked around to price the trip from Tahiti to the East Coast. However, I needed to go farther than just San Francisco. One-way flights on French Bee cost as little as $200 one-way on this route. Thankfully, United and French Bee were in the midst of a price war between San Francisco (SFO) and Papeete, Tahiti (PPT). I booked a one-way AAdvantage award to get myself to Tahiti, and then needed a cheap one-way to get back to the US. So when I needed a cheap, one-way back from Tahiti, my curiosity - with maybe a tad of masochism - was too much to pass up the opportunity to check it out. Both of them are low-cost airlines based in France, and one of those airlines offers cheap flights between the US and Tahiti. ![]() Would you like to be kept up-to-date on pre-registration openings, future courses, and events?
