Flying first class is a luxury too few people get to enjoy, that`s why America West Airlines (NYSE: AWA) is offering an Internet fare sale for all of its domestic first class seats. These reduced fare tickets can be purchased at americawest.com from now through Nov. 10. There are no restrictions on travel dates, no advance purchase requirements, no minimum stay requirements or blackout dates on these special Internet fares.

America West`s business-friendly fare structure offers last minute tickets that are 50 to 70 percent lower than most other major airlines, so with this sale, customers can take advantage of those savings and treat themselves to a very affordable first class trip that doesn`t require a Saturday night stay.

Customers who take advantage of these special Internet deals will also receive 3,000 FlightFund bonus miles for every roundtrip ticket purchased at americawest.com with travel completed by Dec. 31, 2002, as well as a 50 percent mileage bonus that`s offered for all first class ticket purchases.
